Lithium-ion batteries can overheat, start fires, and release hazardous materials if crushed in landfills or municipal recycling streams. Therefore, they should be taken to an authorized electronics recycling center or household hazardous-waste facility for proper handling. Throwing them in household trash, placing them in curbside recycling bins, or incinerating them violates safety and environmental guidelines.
