Recycling Batteries in the RMWB
A new battery recycling program is now available in Fort McMurray, making it easier to safely recycle household batteries.

How it works
Pick up a free battery box
Get a small household battery collection box from:
• Jubilee Centre front desk (9909 Franklin Avenue)
• Public Drop-Off at the Municipal Landfill
Collect at home
Use your box to safely collect used household batteries.
Tape before drop-off
Cover the terminals with non-conductive tape (such as hockey or electrical tape).
Drop them off
• Place batteries in one of the new collection boxes around Fort McMurray (see locations below), or
• Return them (with or without the household box) to the Public Drop-Off at the Municipal Landfill.
Important reminder
⚠️ Damaged, swollen, or leaking batteries must be brought directly to the Public Drop-Off at the landfill for safe disposal.
