The GAF will hold having another household battery collection event in four months.

In the meantime, residents can take their batteries (of all sizes), paints, cleaners, oils, and pesticides that contain potentially hazardous ingredients, as well as E-waste such as televisions, tablets, cell phones and computers to Orange County Waste and Recycling for free all year long.

The nearest facility is located in Huntington Beach, 8.5 miles from Leisure World, at 17121 Nichols Lane, Huntington Beach, CA 92647, Gate 6. It is open from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday. For more information, contact 714-8344000.

The GAF would like to thank the members of the community for their commitment to recycle as well as all the volunteers who supported the battery recycle event: Carl Kennedy, Roberta Johnson, Dave Fourny, Fara McCartney, Sophie Jin, Linda Johnson, Cheryl Falconer, Henry Kim, Katie Kim, Al Basler and Anna Derby.
