How do I dispose of used batteries and rechargeable batteries?

The survival-tacgear shops sell batteries included with various items, or we offer batteries for sale individually. Due to the Battery Ordinance, we as retailers are obliged to inform our customers of the following: Please dispose of used batteries and rechargeable batteries as prescribed by law at an appropriate collection point or hand them in free of charge at a local retail store. Disposal in household waste is expressly prohibited according to the Battery Ordinance.

You can also return your used batteries to us at the address listed below or send them to us by post, franked:

sekastores GmbH
Batterieentsorgung
Lendorf 98c
9811 Lendorf
Austria

We will then dispose of these batteries and rechargeable batteries professionally.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

In addition to batteries, old electrical appliances must also not be disposed of in household waste. This law applies to all electrical and electronic devices. For example, flashlights or GPS navigation devices, watches with built-in microchips, etc. Lighting devices are also included.

These devices are taken back free of charge by cities and municipalities. In more and more households, a special e-waste bin is also being set up for the disposal of electrical waste. Some municipalities also offer a collection service. It is best to inform yourself about your local recycling center or bulky waste collection.
