The road transport requirements for New and Used Lead Acid Batteries are very similar except used lead acid batteries (ULAB) are also classified as a Hazardous Waste. Lead acid batteries are the most common type of batteries used in cars and other other motor vehicles.
The most common packaging method used for transporting used lead acid batteries destined for recycling is the wood pallet. The Battery Council International (BCI*) provides some excellent guidelines on how to package the different types of lead acid batteries for highway & rail transport.
Lead acid batteries must be transported in accordance with various federal & state regulations including dangerous goods, hazardous waste, road transport and workplace safety. The road transport requirements for New and Used Lead Acid Batteries are very similar except used lead acid batteries (ULAB) are also classified as a Hazardous Waste.
These regulations only apply to waste or used lead acid batteries. Unfortunately there is no national regulatory model for the transportation of hazardous waste and consequently each state has it’s own set of regulations. While they have many similarities they are also different.
However, used or spent lead acid batteries that are being managed under the EPA’s requirements specified in 40 CFR part 266 subpart G for “Spent Lead Acid Batteries Being Reclaimed” are not classified as universal waste.
