Battery barrel for collection points that collect more than 700 kg a year

If your site collects more than 700 kilograms of batteries and accumulators a year, you can order plastic barrels designed for transporting hazardous materials instead of boxes.

Full pallet of barrels at the time

UN-approved 110-litre barrels that feature the labeling required by legislation regarding the transport of hazardous materials are delivered and picked up one pallet at the time. Empty barrels are delivered to collection points by separate order (5 or 10 barrels). The minimum pick-up for full barrels is 2 pieces on small pallet (EUR 6).

When starting collection:

Order empty barrels (5 or 10 pcs) from the number 010 520 3455 or the e-mail address cc.turku(a)dbschenker.com. Please note that empty replacement barrels are not delivered automatically when full barrels are picked up.

Order empty barrels:

The use of barrels must always be agreed upon in writing with Recser Oy, which runs Battery Recycling. For more information, please contact info(a)recser.fi or +358 (0)10 249 1717.

Instructions for packing batteries for transport:

DB Schenker only accepts transport equipment provided by Recser Oy or other UN-approved transport containers for transport.

The printable documents for the pick-up consist of a waybill printed on three pages and package-specific address tags. Two of the printed and signed waybills are given to the transporter and one is kept at the pick-up site. In accordance with the requirements set for transfer documents in the Waste Act, the pick-up site must keep the waybill for 3 years.

One printed address tag is attached to each battery pallet. The barrels must be placed ready for pick-up in the usual cargo loading area of the collection site.
