Responsible E-Bike & Lithium Battery Recycling

At Ebike Marketplace (EMP), we offer safe, compliant lithium-ion battery recycling services for e-bikes, scooters, and light electric vehicles. Lithium batteries contain valuable materials but can also be hazardous if improperly handled. Our recycling process ensures batteries are handled responsibly, safely, and in accordance with environmental best practices.

What We Recycle

We accept most consumer and light-mobility lithium-ion batteries, including:

  • E-bike batteries (Shark, Dolphin, Reention, Dorado, internal packs, etc.)

  • Scooter batteries

  • Light electric vehicle (LEV) battery packs

  • Loose lithium-ion battery packs (non-OEM and aftermarket)

  • Battery packs from discontinued or unsupported brands

If you’re unsure whether your battery qualifies, our team can help review it before drop-off or shipment.

Batteries We Do Not Recycle

For safety and regulatory reasons, we cannot accept:

  • Severely damaged, crushed, or actively smoking batteries

  • Batteries involved in fires or thermal runaway

  • Flood-submerged batteries

  • Large EV (automotive) battery packs

If your battery falls into one of these categories, please contact your local hazardous waste authority.

Our Recycling Capabilities

EMP is not just a drop-off location—we are a battery service and diagnostics facility. This allows us to:

  • Safely discharge batteries prior to recycling

  • Identify reusable components when applicable

  • Separate recyclable materials properly

  • Route batteries to approved downstream recycling partners

In some cases, batteries brought in for recycling are first evaluated to determine whether repair or rebuild is possible—saving you money and extending battery life when safe and feasible.

Why Proper Battery Recycling Matters

Improper disposal of lithium batteries can lead to:

  • Fires in trash facilities

  • Environmental contamination

  • Legal and safety risks

Recycling ensures recovery of materials such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, copper, and aluminum while keeping hazardous components out of landfills.

Drop-Off & Shipping Options

Local Drop-Off

Customers may drop off qualifying batteries at our facility during business hours or by appointment.

Mail-In Recycling

Shipping lithium batteries requires specific packaging and labeling. If you plan to ship a battery to us, please contact us first so we can confirm eligibility and provide shipping guidance.

⚠️ Do not ship lithium batteries without approval and proper packaging.

Recycling Fees

Battery recycling fees may apply depending on:

  • Battery size and weight

  • Condition of the battery

  • Quantity submitted

Pricing is transparent and will be communicated before acceptance.

Commitment to Safety & Compliance

  • Batteries are handled by trained technicians

  • Safety protocols are followed at every stage

  • Recycling partners meet environmental and regulatory standards

Our priority is protecting people, property, and the environment.
