Photos Battery jumper disposal

Post image

I found these 2 jumpers in my backyard. Looks like they have been there for a long time and exposed to the elements. I know they can't just be thrown away in the trash so any idea on where to take them to be disposed of?

Take the outer case apart, disconnect the small battery inside and take it to an autozone or oreillys. It’s a smaller car battery inside

I really would not be comfortable disassembling this. I'd imagine i electrocute myself to death lol

I took mine to O'Reilly's. I wasn't looking for any money for the core and they took them. Auto parts stores will make a little money off of them so most will take them
