Your old golf cart battery cannot go in the trash. Lead-acid batteries are classified as hazardous waste and are banned from Florida landfills by law. They contain lead and sulfuric acid that can leak into the ground and contaminate local water sources for years.
At Pit Stop Batteries, we make recycling simple. We pick up your old battery pack, transport it safely, and send it to a certified recycling facility — all at no extra cost to you.
Nothing gets dumped. Every battery we collect goes to a licensed processing facility where it is broken down properly. The lead is melted and reused in new battery plates. The plastic casing is shredded and recycled into new cases. The acid is neutralized and converted into reusable materials.
97% of the materials inside a lead-acid golf cart battery can be fully recovered and used again.
We pick it up — you don’t lift a finger. When we install your new battery pack, we take the old one with us on the same visit. No separate trip, no hauling heavy batteries yourself.
No hidden fees. Battery recycling is included as part of our service. We don’t charge you extra to do the right thing.
Certified recycling only. We work exclusively with licensed recycling facilities — not general waste haulers. Your battery is tracked from pickup to processing.
