“The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) is a non-profit, public service organization dedicated to rechargeable battery recycling. Founded by the rechargeable battery industry in 1994, RBRC’s mission is to promote the recycling of used rechargeable batteries found in many cordless electronic consumer products such as, cellular and cordless phones, laptop computers, cordless power tools, camcorders, and two-way radios. In pursuit of its mission, RBRC also collects old cell phones. RBRC’s public education campaign and rechargeable battery and cell phone recycling program – Call2Recycle® – is the result of the industry’s determination to conserve natural resources and prevent rechargeable batteries from entering the solid waste stream.”
