Common questions
Straight answers before you sign up.
We already have a free program.
Keep it. It is built for healthy batteries, and its own rules refuse damaged, defective and recalled ones. We are the missing half, not a replacement.
What batteries do you take?
The program is built for the most dangerous class of lithium-ion, so we can take any lithium-ion battery.
Why prepay?
Prepaying saves about $10 a month per container. It lets us buy in bulk and lock in steady logistics.
We run our own carriers. Can we still join?
Yes. The client-managed drum option is built for larger organizations with their own carrier network, at $89/month prepaid or $99/month month-to-month.
