Used Battery Collection Service
Battery Rescue provides a regulation compliant, safe, environmentally sustainable and convenient, used battery collection service to businesses and organisations (Used Battery Generators – UBGs) that accumulate used lead acid batteries. Our service revolves around the use of the purpose built, patented Battery Transport & Storage (BTS) Container, which provides a safer method for storing and transporting lead acid batteries, while reducing the environmental impact of batteries.
Our service is currently available in Metro Perth & Regional WA. If you are based outside of Western Australia you can purchase the BTS Containers from our sister company Uniseg Products.
We believe the use of wood pallets should be eliminated due to their inherit safety risks and impact on the environment. A full summary of the benefits of Battery Rescue’s battery collection service can be found here.

Reduce Your Company & Personal Risks
The majority of Used Battery Generators are not “Regulation Compliant” with respect to the correct storage, handling and transportation of used lead acid batteries (ULABs). As a Controlled Hazardous Waste and Dangerous Goods the storage, handling & transportation of ULAB’s is controlled by a raft of different regulations, which carry significant penalties for non-compliance.
“Chain Of Responsibility” provisions in Australian Transport Laws require consignors to ensure compliance by their transport providers. This applies to the off site transport of used lead acid batteries. Failure to discharge their responsibilities correctly can result in Companies, their Executives & Employees being deemed liable.
Battery Rescue’s collection service is designed to eliminate these risks to Companies & its Employees by delivering regulation compliant storage and transportation of used lead acid batteries. For a full summary of the benefits of Battery Rescue’s Battery Collection Service.
