Did you know lithium batteries should never be placed in your curbside garbage? When batteries are crushed or damaged during trash compaction, they can spark fires in garbage trucks and pose a serious danger to sanitation workers.
We’re happy to share that Denny’s Sanitation in Rock Rapids now has a lithium battery collection box for safe disposal. Grab a bag from the left side of the drop box, bag your battery, and drop it in the box. It's that simple!
There are also collection boxes available at:
📍 Inwood Community Center
📍 Doon City Shop
Please help protect our community, our sanitation workers, and our environment by properly disposing of your lithium batteries.
