San Gabriel Valley in Times Square! Thanks to a grant from the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), the SGVCOG made it easier for consumers and retailers to recycle household batteries. The efforts were captured on the Reuters Sign in Times Square with a photo of Monrovia Councilwoman Becky Schevlin at a local take-back business. Would you like to find your local take-back business? Visit our Battery Recycling page.
Battery and Lamp Recycling It is against the law to throw household batteries and fluorescent lamps in the trash or recycling bin. To properly dispose of these hazardous items, look for lamp and battery take-back centers at local businesses throughout San Gabriel Valley.
