I replaced my laptop’s battery after it was swollen. I found out that services like call2recycle do not take swollen batteries since they are potentially hazardous material. How can I get rid of that damned spicy pillow? In Dallas. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion and tips guys. I have bought lipo fire resistant bags for the batteries. As stated in suggestions here, most of the places like Home Depot, Best Buy, Lowes do have a recycling program; but some of them have disclaimers regarding not accepting swollen batteries. I plan to go to Batteries and Bulbs, Best Buy asap; they look most promising.

    Whatever you do, keep it away from anything flammable or near any living environment.

    If electronics stores are not willing to help you could try the fire brigade. Call them on the non emergency number. They can advise you much better.
