Batteries come in many chemistries and the type matters a great deal. The most common scrap battery is the lead-acid car and truck battery, but there are marine, forklift, and other kinds as well. Because different chemistries are handled very differently, this is a material where you should check first.
Before you bring batteries in, call (516) 333-6145 or send a photo so we can confirm the type and how to bring it in. Do not assume every battery is the same, and do not stack or pile damaged or leaking batteries in your vehicle — ask us first.
Deer Park Recycling is our non-ferrous yard at 54 Kinkel St, Westbury, NY 11590. Every load is weighed and graded in front of the customer. We are family-owned and have done this since 1994.
A quick call or photo before you load saves you a wasted trip and tells you exactly how to handle what you have. Pickups and roll-off containers are available across Long Island and all five NYC boroughs.
