Rechargeable Devices Start Garbage and Recycling Fires

All rechargeable devices contain rechargeable batteries. These batteries are sensitive to contact and pressure, so if they get tossed in the garbage or regular recycling, they can easily start fires in garbage trucks or at recycling facilities. Keep sanitation workers safe by making sure your electronic devices are disposed of properly.
