I have some dead batteries and some old ups units that I would like to get rid of. Where could I get rid of these in the Brampton/Mississauga area?
Also where to dispose of old broken monitors?

What UPS units do you have? If they are still good and all they need are new batteries then I might be interested.
The batteries are lead-acid gel cells. Dispose of them at a hazardous waste facility just like any car battery.

Unit 1
APC
Backup UPS Pro 650.
Model BP650S
Battery says recyclable.
Unit 2
Tripp-Lite
Internet Office 300
They're a few years old and low wattage. I doubt its worth your time, Pickup in brampton.

Too small for my needs. I was hoping for at least 1000VA capacity.
