I was cleaning our a drawer and found an old cell phone with a swelling battery. I know i can’t/shouldn’t throw it away but because it is swollen recycling seems to be off the table as well. I found a place that would take it but they wanted $150 for the packaging to make it safe to mail.

I’m in north-west Louisiana. How do I get rid of it.

    Oh I’m thankful for the replacement, I’m just not thrilled with now having to find a way to properly dispose of the faulty one.

      Oh yeah totally forgot about that part haha. Just put in the trash of a neighbour you don’t like, might solve two problems in one go 😉
