Where is the proper place to take a used battery?

To a garage or local authority site
To a recycling bin
To a waste disposal site
To your home for storage

The correct answer is: To a garage or local authority site

Taking a used battery to a garage or local authority site is the appropriate action because these locations are equipped to handle hazardous waste, such as batteries. Batteries contain harmful materials that require careful disposal to prevent environmental contamination. Garages are often specialized in vehicle maintenance and may properly recycle or dispose of car batteries, while local authority sites typically have facilities designed for recycling hazardous materials. Other options, like recycling bins or waste disposal sites, may not be specifically equipped for battery recycling, which could lead to environmental risks if the batteries are not handled correctly. Additionally, storing batteries at home is not advisable due to potential leaks and hazards they present. Therefore, the best course of action is to ensure the battery is taken to a facility capable of managing such waste safely.
