Transportation of New, Used and Waste Lead-Acid Batteries

There are different requirements for the transportation of New, Used, and Waste Lead-Acid Batteries in BC.  New and Used Lead-Acid Batteries that are shipped between the customer’s location and the distribution warehouse within a Stewardship Program are not considered Hazardous Waste; however, they are considered Dangerous Goods under the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act.

All shipments of waste lead-acid batteries from a distribution warehouse to a smelter are considered Hazardous Waste.  Consequently, shipments of Waste Lead-Acid Batteries are subject to the following requirements:

  • Within BC over 1000kg must comply with the requirements of BC's Hazardous Waste Regulation;
  • Within Canada over 1000kg must comply with the requirement of Canada's Export and Import of Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Recyclable Material Regulation;
  • Exports from Canada to US or OECD countries over 5kg must have Export Permit;
  • All other exports from Canada are banned under the Basel Convention.
