Battery Disposal

(Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation) Seal on the battery packs
means that RIDGID has already paid
the cost of recycling the lithium-ion
battery packs once they have reached
the end of their useful life.

RBRC™, RIDGID

®

, and other battery suppliers have

developed programs in the USA and Canada to collect
and recycle rechargeable batteries. Normal and recharge-
able batteries contain materials that should not be direct-
ly disposed of in nature, and contain valuable materials
that can be recycled. Help to protect the environment
and conserve natural resources by returning your used
batteries to your local retailer or an authorized RIDGID ser-
vice center for recycling. Your local recycling center can
also provide you with additional drop off locations.
