Ritz Camera Offers Free Battery Recycling

by Trey Granger

Ritz Camera has added rechargeable battery collection boxes to more than 140 western U.S. stores as part of a new partnership with Call2Recycle to encourage customers to recycle batteries.

Participating stores are located in Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada and Oregon, and customers can recycle obsolete rechargeable batteries in these stores at no charge.

Call2Recycle is a campaign by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), with a database of more than 50,000 locations to recycle rechargeable batteries.
