So I replaced the battery of my Graphing Calculator and my Headphones just recently, and now i’m left with 2 batteries that I don’t how to dispose of.

As far as I am aware, there are no battery recycling stations around me (if that’s a thing, I heard it is), and If there are any, I kind of need to be told where lol!

The Headphone Battery was full capacity when I replaced it, oh and because it was attached via adhesive, it flexed a good amount during removal so i’m afraid to keep it.

Graphing Calculator Battery doesn’t hold a charge anymore.

Please help? Thanks :)

Edit: I currently live in California if that helps :)

    Hmm, that’s difficult. Some electronic hardware stores take in batteries (Microcenter comes to mind, but I bet others do something similar). I think some libraries take in batteries too, but I don’t recall where I heard that, or if i just misremembered - could be worth checking your local library if they do.

    If nothing else, universities basically always have a battery disposal, but the bins themselves can be frustratingly difficult to find sometimes
