Batteries Plus teams up with Green Bay Packers to launch battery recycling initiative

Big recycling news update.

Following the news of being chosen to enter into negotiations for a $7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, Batteries Plus – the nation's leading specialty battery retailer – announced today at Lambeau Field its partnership with the Green Bay Packers to launch a new battery recycling initiative. Backed by the Department of Energy, this collaboration aims to reshape battery recycling efforts across the country, engaging communities in a shared commitment to environmental sustainability.

The initiative will see the implementation of highly visible recycling stations at Wisconsin Batteries Plus locations as well as an interactive booth at Lambeau Field that showcases and educates consumers on how to properly recycle batteries. Cirba Solutions, Batteries Plus's preferred recycling partner for 14 years, will help facilitate the recycling process as the brand will encourage fans to visit their local Batteries Plus store to recycle their old and used batteries. The brand is also launching recycling contests with local schools, with the winning class from the selected school winning an exclusive Lambeau Field experience. As part of the launch, the interactive booth will be set up at select Packers games this season, including the preseason Family Night and games against the Minnesota Vikings and Arizona Cardinals, where they can also enter to win exclusive Packers experiences and prizes.
