WIXOM, Mich., June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In honor of World Environment Day (June 5), the leading experts in the battery recycling materials and management industry, Cirba Solutions is working to enhance education around the importance of battery recycling and making it more accessible to the greater public. To do this, Cirba Solutions will be hosting a battery recycling collection event at its Wixom, Mich. facility that is free for the public to participate in by dropping off their end-of-life batteries for recycling.

Wixom, Mich. Collection Event:
This facility will be accepting batteries for recycling from 9:00am to 1:00pm local time on Thursday, June 5. The facility is located at 4930 Holtz Dr. Wixom, Mich., 48393.

At this time, Cirba Solutions will not be accepting e-cigarettes/vape pens and large electronics (TVs, lawncare equipment, vacuums, e-mobility, electric vehicle battery packs, appliances, etc.).

Prior to dropping off batteries for safe handling and recycling, consumers and businesses are asked to tape the terminals of the batteries. In total, there is a 200 lb. maximum limit, per vehicle, of batteries that can be dropped off for recycling.

"Batteries are everywhere, and it's important to understand that there are gaps when it comes to knowledge on how and where to recycle end-of-life batteries. For example, in a recent survey we conducted, nearly 50% of respondents are aware that lithium batteries should not be disposed of in regular trash bins but do so anyways because they are unsure of where to dispose of them," said Rob Brisley, Cirba Solutions' Plant Manager in Wixom. "To keep batteries out of landfills, enhance safety in the recycle streams and to increase our domestic critical minerals supply chains, we must do a better job of educating consumers on how and where to recycle batteries. This public collection event is just one avenue to bridge the education and access gaps."
