【Tama/June Rainy Season】Safe Collection of Swollen Mobile Batteries Found in Houses/Apartments in Tachikawa, Hachioji, and Machida | Municipalities Unable to Collect, E-bike Batteries Accepted | 7,700 JPY for On-site Service

June is a period when people are clearing out their homes, sheds, warehouses, and garages as the rainy season begins.

In the Tama region, consultations regarding the disposal of lithium-ion batteries—such as swollen mobile batteries, internal laptop batteries, and e-bike batteries—tend to increase due to moving, room organization for students living alone, office equipment upgrades, and warehouse cleanouts.

Especially in areas like Tachikawa, Hachioji, and Machida, which feature many detached houses with garages and workshops, batteries stored for long periods in storerooms or garages are frequently found during cleaning.

Furthermore, as these are areas with many students living alone, mobile batteries, smartphone batteries, and laptop batteries are often discovered in bulk during room sorting.

In business settings, old laptops, tablets, professional terminals, and rechargeable batteries for power tools are often found during office relocations or warehouse reorganizations, and many are kept without knowledge of how to dispose of them.

However, since lithium-ion batteries are often treated as 'difficult-to-process' items by many municipalities and cannot be collected as regular bulky or non-burnable trash, people often leave them in dangerous conditions for long periods due to fear or lack of disposal information.

To address this, Marutto Honpo (operated by SYSTR Co., Ltd.) will continue its safety-focused collection of lithium-ion batteries, including swollen ones, in the Tama region this June.

The service ensures proper extraction, fire-proof management, and legal compliance through professional routes to help eliminate hidden fire risks.
