Recycle Your Batteries, Canada!
Did you know that properly recycling your batteries can help protect wildlife?
Batteries contain toxic materials that can harm the environment if they end up in landfill. That’s why it’s important to properly recycle your batteries!
When you collect batteries at your school, you’re keeping them out of landfills and protecting wildlife.
You’re also helping to recover valuable materials that can be re-used to make new products, like new batteries, golf clubs, and the stainless steel pots and pans! The possibilities are endless.
Last year, the Recycle Your Batteries, Canada! program collected and recycled over 6.8 million kg of batteries. That’s about the weight of 850 African elephants!
Participate in the Battery Blitz School Mission and do your part to recycle batteries!
From October 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025, Earth Rangers and Recycle Your Batteries, Canada! are running Battery Blitz School Mission contests, in Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan.
Elementary schools will compete with other schools within their province, for a chance to win amazing cash prizes!

Your School Mission is to recycle as many used batteries as you can by encouraging students, parents, staff, and community members to bring them into your school and place them in the Recycle Your Batteries, Canada! collection boxes.
