# Batteries

Seneca works with an external company to dispose of batteries using a method that recycles and reuses all of the components of an alkaline battery sustainably — nothing is sent to landfill. During 2022, Seneca collected more than 270 kg of batteries for safe recycling.

Battery collection bins are located at the following campuses:

- Shipping & Receiving, Room GH1030, Garriock Hall, King Campus
- Computer Commons, Pod C, Garriock Hall, King Campus
