Circuit City and the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC) announced Call2RecycleT — a consumer initiative to increase Circuit City’s participation in RBRC's recycling program. RBRC is a nonprofit, public service organization dedicated to recycling used rechargeable batteries and old cellphones.   In addition to the regular Call2Recycle collection boxes currently available in Circuit City stores throughout the United States, Circuit City recently began distributing individual collection bags to customers in an effort to further educate consumers on the importance of protecting the environment. The branded collection bags provide step-by-step instructions for rechargeable battery and cellphone recycling and encourage consumers to drop off the items at Circuit City locations.

Circuit City recycles used rechargeable batteries commonly found in laptop computers, cordless power tools, digital cameras, and cordless phones.
