Fire-safe containers, collected on a schedule you can plan around.
Who it is for
If batteries collect at your site, we have somewhere safe to put them.
Battery operators and fleets
Retired swap packs, held upright, separated and tagged in a Bin so every pack stays identifiable for testing later.
Solar and energy companies
Returned home systems and packs from the field, collected on the same licensed route as everything else.
Supermarkets, malls and forecourts
Customers who need somewhere to drop old batteries. A Battery Point gives them one, with no preparation needed.
Offices, schools, clinics and county buildings
The drawer full of used batteries finally has somewhere safe to go: a Collection box by reception.
Containers
Four options, leased monthly. We own them, we service them, we replace them.
Small sites
Collection box
Sealed, compact, sits by a reception desk or in a store room. For offices, schools and clinics where volumes are low but the batteries still need somewhere safe to go.
Public spaces
Battery Point
A locked drop-off cabinet holding a certified fire-safe drum on a trolley. Deposit through the chute, we swap the drum when it fills. Bilingual signage, QR code, no preparation needed.
Operators and fleets
Bin
Holds retired swap packs upright, separated and individually tagged, so nothing shorts against anything else and every pack stays identifiable for testing later.
The service
Scheduled pick up
Licensed collection on shared routes. Full container out, empty one in. Sharing the round is what makes it affordable to collect small volumes safely.
How it works
Four steps, and only the first one needs a decision from you.
- 01
Choose a container.
Tell us your site and roughly how many batteries you handle. We recommend the unit and the collection frequency.
- 02
We deliver and set up.
The container arrives ready to use, with signage in place and your staff shown how to use it safely.
- 03
We collect.
On a standing schedule or whenever you request one in the portal. Batteries are temperature-checked before they are loaded.
- 04
You get the record.
Every battery logged as it moves, downloadable any time, for your regulator, your insurer or your board.
Fast
Tell us the site and the volume, and we come back with the container and the schedule. No procurement cycle to sit through.
Safe
Fire-safe containers, temperature checks before loading, and licensed transport. Safe handling is the whole job, not an add-on.
Documented
Every battery is logged as it moves, and the record is yours to download any time. Records come with the service, never priced separately.
What we accept
Every chemistry, from a button cell to a bus pack.
Contamination is the biggest problem in battery collection, so every container carries bilingual signage in English and Swahili showing exactly what belongs inside, with a QR code to the full list. Different chemistries travel on different streams, which is what makes broad collection safe.

We collect
- Lithium-ion
- Lithium polymer
- Lithium iron phosphate
- Lithium manganese
- Lithium primary
- Nickel metal hydride
- Alkaline
- Zinc carbon
- Zinc air
- Button cells
By arrangement
- Lead-acid
- Nickel cadmium
Lead-acid and nickel cadmium are handled on separate streams so they never contaminate lithium processing. Talk to us before sending them. If a battery is swollen, leaking or hot, do not move it. Leave the area and call 999 or 112.
Impact
Recycling avoids the greenhouse gases released when metals are mined, shipped and refined from ore. The chart shows kilograms of CO2 equivalent avoided at each weight recycled.
Avoided emissions by weight recycled
kg CO2-eq avoided
Factors are indicative averages drawn from published life-cycle assessments of lithium-ion battery recycling, using the avoided-burden method. Actual savings vary by battery chemistry, recycling route and grid mix.
Drop-off points
Find a Battery Point near you.
The first Battery Points are being placed across Nairobi. Each location appears here as it goes live.
No public drop-off points are live yet. If your business would like to host one, or you have batteries that need collecting now, talk to us.
Start collecting
If batteries collect at your site, tell us about it and we will bring a container to put them in.
Tell us what your site looks like and roughly how many batteries you handle. We come back with the container that fits, what the monthly lease covers, and how often the route should run.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
1.How much does a container cost?
Containers are leased monthly, never sold. The lease covers the unit, servicing, and replacement when it wears.
What you pay depends on the container and how often your route runs, so order a container and we will quote for your site.
2.Who owns and maintains the container?
Revlog does. We deliver it, service it, and replace it when needed. If a unit is damaged, we swap it on the next collection.
3.What happens to my batteries after collection?
Every battery is logged as it moves, temperature checked before loading, and carried on a licensed route to storage.
Packs that still hold useful capacity are tested for a second life in energy storage. The ones that are truly finished go to licensed processors so their materials can be recovered.
4.Do I get documentation?
Yes. Records come with the service. Every battery is logged as it moves, and the record is downloadable any time, for your regulator, your insurer or your board.
5.What can I put in a container?
Lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries from phones, laptops, power tools, e-bikes, motorbikes and solar home systems. Damaged or swollen batteries need separate arrangement, so tell us before the collection.
The full list is under What we accept above.
6.Can the public use a container?
Battery Points are the public option: locked drop-off cabinets in supermarkets, malls and forecourts. The other containers are for the sites that host them.
If your business would like to host a Battery Point, talk to us.
