The Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc actively participates in a battery recycling initiative, which aims to enhance waste reduction efforts and diminish the community’s carbon footprint. Strathroy-Caradoc now offers recycling options for the battery waste generated within our area. Various locations across the Municipality facilitate battery recycling, including the Gemini Sportsplex, West Middlesex Memorial Centre, the Strathroy Public Library and Municipal Office. The batteries collected undergo processing at RMC’s Port Colborne, facility, with the battery components being crushed and separated into different metals, minerals, plastics, and paper.
