🔋 Batteries in Palm Beach County: Rechargeable and lithium batteries go to any HCRC free. The SWA also runs periodic lithium-battery collection events at its Education Center on North Jog Road. Tape the terminals with clear non-conductive tape and keep lithium batteries in separate bags. Electric-vehicle batteries are not accepted at SWA facilities — those go back to the dealer.

How Drop-Off Works in Palm Beach County

Palm Beach County is the simplest of the three: the Solid Waste Authority runs a single county-wide system, and every resident can use any Home Chemical & Recycling Center regardless of which city they live in. Six of the seven are co-located with SWA transfer stations; the seventh is the standalone center on North Jog Road in West Palm Beach.

The HCRCs take home chemicals — paint and stains, pesticides and pool chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, rechargeable batteries, propane tanks — and used or outdated electronics, at no charge to residents. Commercial quantities of electronics are handled separately; businesses should call the SWA.

Bulk furniture and mattresses are a different story: those run through your city or hauler's curbside program, not the SWA. Our Palm Beach disposal guide covers that side.
