I walked thru my barn and found seven old vehicle and tractor batteries that were never exchanged. What can I do with them ? I don't know corpus very well as to location that might buy them for the core ??
any help is appreciated.

I thought the scrap yards would take them. They recycle the lead inside the batteries.

Add them to the other 20+ I have here and recycle them when I get time. Taking one or 2 or 3 down to the recycle place isnt even worth the gas right now. metals are in the toilet
