I've got an old car battery, can I just take it to the local recycling place (tip) or does it need to go somewhere else?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, all the Recycling Centres (Dumpit Sites) have sections for old batteries.

Check with the place where you purchased your replacement battery. You may have already paid a core charge which they will refund you when you return the old battery.
