Battery Bin started as a student-driven initiative with a simple idea: what if we could keep used batteries out of landfills and protect our environment by making battery recycling easy and accessible? From placing the first collection bin in a single school, we’ve grown into a community-led movement, connecting households, businesses, and schools to responsible recycling solutions. Guided by curiosity and care for the planet, Battery Bin turns everyday actions into meaningful change.
Our mission is to reduce the environmental impact of battery waste by creating a network of convenient collection points, raising awareness about e-waste, and ensuring safe, transparent recycling. We aim to empower people to take small steps — like dropping used batteries into a Battery Bin — that collectively make a big difference for our planet.
Every battery recycled through Battery Bin prevents harmful chemicals from polluting soil and water, and helps recover valuable materials for reuse. So far, we’ve diverted hundreds of kilograms of battery waste from landfills, partnered with schools and local organizations, and inspired countless students and families to rethink their relationship with e-waste. Together, we’re building a cleaner, more sustainable future — one battery at a time.
