Where to dispose of used battery?

Hi,


Used batteries contain toxic materials and I know that we are not supposed to dispose of them in normal bin, so where should we dispose of them?


I'm not talking about rechargeable batteries, but I have several "normal" ones (got them with toys), and just don't know what to do with them now.


Thank you!

No answer...


Does it mean that everybody in Hong Kong just dispose of them with normal rubbish? ...

Hong Kong only has recycling for rechargeable and mobile phones batteries.

Thanks Claire. I saw the article on "Why we don't recycle disposable batteries?". :-D Make me feel better ;-)
