Auto Recycling on Earth Day

As we have mentioned in prior posts, Earth Day is now an annual event in April. The mission of Earth Day coincides with Cash 4 Cars Cleveland’s objective of promoting recycling. We are a scrap my car service provider whom you can sell a car for cash to. When you sell an old car, or even a totaled car, we insure the vehicle is recycled in a manner that is environmentally conscious.

The April 21, 2015 edition of the Turlock Journal contains an article titled ‘Get rid of old car batteries for a greener, cleaner planet’ with the following highlights: “As part of its ongoing commitment to promoting a greener planet, AAA Northern CA is offering its popular battery recycling program “AAA Battery Roundup”. Members and the public can drop off their old automotive, motorcycle, RV and marine batteries at select locations throughout the year. California’s Battery Roundup recycling program has collected 709,000 batteries from 2010-2014.

Car batteries contain dangerous substances like lead & acid that, when not disposed of properly, can leak into groundwater or cause chemical burns, fires or lead poisoning. Each year, old batteries stored in homes and garages injure more than 7,000 Americans. If properly recycled, nearly 100 percent of each battery can be reused.

In Northern CA, AAA offers over 100 convenient drop-off locations for battery recycling. In Turlock, batteries can be taken to: Turlock City Tow, 1308 W. Linwood Ave. AAA urges caution when bringing batteries to the drop-off locations. Be sure to wear gloves & safety glasses. Place the batteries upright in a cardboard box or plastic container and make sure they won’t shift or tip over in a moving vehicle.  The complete article is available here:  http://www.turlockjournal.com/

As an environmentally supportive ‘scrap my car’ company, we think this CA-based program is extremely worthwhile and if the program is financially sound, that it should be replicated throughout the US.
