Recycling car batteries used to be primarily focused on the conventional lead-acid batteries that provide power to automobiles of all sorts. Today, though, when you think about how to recycle car batteries for cash, it's important to include the lithium-ion batteries that are used in electric vehicles as well.

Lead-Acid Batteries
Car batteries made of lead-acid are one of the United States' most recycled products. In fact, there is currently a nearly 100 percent recycling rate for these in terms of consumers. In many cases, consumers simply leave their old, spent battery at the retailer or dealership where they are getting their replacement. Some auto parts stores charge a deposit when a new battery is purchased so consumers might be entitled to receive a small amount when they return the battery to the same retailer at a later date.
In some cases, there are state and local laws that are applicable to the recycling of lead-acid batteries. GlobalTech Environmental offers an easy method that allows retailers, scrap yards, auto parts stores and vehicle repair shops to recycle a car battery for money. This type of service is undoubtedly part of the reason why nearly all the lead contained in lead-acid batteries is recycled. A new lead-acid battery typically contains about 60 to 80 percent recycled plastic and lead. Not only are these useful materials kept out of the country's landfills, their reuse can also help reduce the price of a new battery.
Lithium-Ion Batteries
Small-scale lithium-ion batteries already have a solid presence in the United States because they are commonly found in small consumer electronics such as cell phones, laptops, electric toothbrushes and other devices. Larger-scale lithium-ion batteries are becoming more popular as well. The primary reason for this popularity is the influx of electric cars.
These bigger electric car batteries can last for as long as 10 years and expected to comprise up to 90 percent of the lithium-ion battery use by the year 2025. This also means that the demand for the materials that comprise their makeup will increase as well. It's expected that by 2025, demand for cobalt will double while the lithium demand will increase fourfold.
In order to take advantage of the rise in demand -- and the related increase in value -- of the materials found in lithium-ion batteries, companies that accept them need to partner with an innovative thought leader in the industry. At GlobalTech Environmental, we forge relationships with the top refineries around the world to secure the highest payout for our customers. We provide detailed instructions concerning the correct storage, packaging and shipping to meet the regulations that govern this type of battery. GlobalTech Environmental is also able to pick up your batteries from anywhere across the United States at a time that's most convenient for you.
