Is there a location to recycle single use batteries in or around Rochester NY? If not, why not?

You can check your local Staples store. I know they accept single use batteries for recycling in my area.

Try Home Depot. They have boxes to collect batteries.

@Fran check out http://www.nikereuseashoe.com/ there about a dozen drop-off locations throughout NYS for used sneakers. i called the niagara falls store, which happens to be closest to where i live, and they said they take up to 30 pairs at a time (any brand, shoelaces on OK), and/or will work with community groups for larger donations.

Anyone have any ideas for recycling/reusing aluminum foil (aside from washing and reusing, which I already do but can only be done to a point)?

In a very delayed response to A Doyle and anyone else in the Rochester NY area: Lori’s Natural Foods on Jefferson Road in Henrietta has a bin to deposit used batteries and used printer cartridges (ink jet and laser). The staff sorts them and makes sure they get to a proper place for recycling. Also on the premises is a large donation bin for used clothing, belts, and purses. The proceeds received benefit All4Pets NY, and the items are distributed to needy people – EVERYBODY WINS!

Any suggestions if pharmaceutical pill bottles can be recycled and who will take them? I’m striking out everwhere! I live in Westchester, NY, but am also in Manhattan and Long Island ever week. I know they’re great for storing small items, but there’s just so many I need for that. Thanks!
