Old, damaged or unused vehicle batteries should never be left sitting around or placed in general waste. Lead-acid batteries contain valuable recyclable materials, but they can also pose environmental and safety risks when handled or disposed of incorrectly.
At Raw Metal Corp, we buy used lead-acid vehicle batteries and ensure they are recycled safely and responsibly.
With convenient yards in Wacol and Mackay, turning your unwanted vehicle batteries into cash is simple.
Why Recycle Old Vehicle Batteries?
Lead-acid batteries contain lead, plastic and other materials that can be recovered and reused.
Recycling these materials reduces the demand for newly sourced resources while helping prevent hazardous substances from entering landfill.
When batteries are not disposed of correctly, their lead and acidic components can contaminate soil and waterways. Recycling your unwanted batteries through an experienced metal recycling company helps protect the environment and gives valuable materials another life.
Get Fair Value for Your Old Batteries
The value of a used vehicle battery is influenced by factors including its weight, lead content, condition and current scrap metal market rates.
Raw Metal Corp assesses your batteries and offers fair value based on the recoverable materials they contain.
