Research shows that more than 12 million electric bicycles (e-bikes) are estimated to be sold in the United States between 2020 and 2030. That’s 12 million batteries used to power those e-bikes that will need to be safely and responsibly collected and recycled at their end-of-life. With this in mind, Friends of Osprey Junction Trailhead has announced an eBike Battery Recycling Program. Partnering with Call2Recycle, the country’s leading consumer battery recycling and stewardship program (www.call2recycle.org) and local bike shops participating in the program, Friends of Osprey Junction Trailhead is excited to add this ebike battery recycling program to its existing community services and programs. If you have an ebike battery you wish to recycle, you can find the drop-off location nearest to you by visiting https://www.call2recycle.org/e-bikes/ and do a zip code search.
