Professional Lithium-Ion Battery Collection Across South Africa

Yes, we provide free collection services for bulk quantities of lithium-ion batteries (50+ units) across South Africa. For smaller quantities, batteries can be dropped off at our Germiston facility. Our certified dangerous goods transport ensures safe, compliant collection from Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, and nationwide.

We collect all types of lithium-ion batteries including: mobile phone and smartphone batteries, laptop and tablet batteries, electric vehicle (EV) batteries, solar energy system batteries, power tool batteries, UPS and backup power batteries, e-bike and e-scooter batteries, medical device batteries, and industrial lithium-ion applications. All batteries are handled according to UN3480/UN3481 regulations.

Yes, our lithium-ion battery collection service is fully compliant with South African dangerous goods regulations (SANS 10228), UN3480/UN3481 international standards, and NEMWA environmental requirements. We use certified Class 9 dangerous goods packaging, trained transport personnel, and provide complete documentation for all collections.

Damaged, swollen, or potentially hazardous lithium-ion batteries require special handling procedures. We use UN-specification packaging designed for damaged batteries, apply thermal runaway prevention measures, provide fire-resistant containment systems, and ensure immediate safe transport to prevent incidents. Our technicians are trained in hazardous battery handling protocols.

We provide lithium-ion battery collection services throughout South Africa, including major cities: Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein, East Rand, West Rand, and surrounding areas. Free bulk collection is available nationwide, with regular scheduled routes to all provinces.

Our lithium-ion battery transport follows strict safety protocols: UN-certified dangerous goods packaging, Class 9 hazardous material labeling, temperature-controlled transport vehicles, trained and certified drivers, fire suppression equipment on all vehicles, GPS tracking and monitoring systems, and 24/7 emergency response capability. All transport complies with IATA and ICAO regulations.

Yes, we provide complete documentation including: transport manifests, chain of custody records, dangerous goods declarations, disposal certificates, environmental compliance certificates, and audit trail documentation. All paperwork meets South African regulatory requirements and international standards for lithium-ion battery disposal.

Collected lithium-ion batteries are transported to our licensed processing facility where they undergo safe dismantling and material recovery. Valuable materials like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese are extracted for reuse in new battery production. All processing follows NEMWA environmental regulations and zero-waste-to-landfill principles.

Collection timeframes depend on location and quantity. For Gauteng area collections, we typically schedule within 24-48 hours for urgent requests. Other provinces are serviced within 3-7 days depending on routing. Emergency collections for damaged or hazardous batteries can be arranged within hours when necessary.

We accept lithium-ion batteries from both individuals and businesses. While free collection is available for bulk quantities (typically 50+ batteries), individuals with smaller quantities are welcome to drop off batteries at our Germiston facility during business hours. We also accept batteries from schools, community organizations, and residential complexes.
