Technical FAQs 4

How do you pack a dry cell nickel cadmium battery?

These batteries must be recycled, and they do have special packing and shipping requirements. Dry cell nickel-cadmium batteries that are higher than 9-volt must be packed so that the terminals do not touch each other. You can put conductive caps on them, bag them individually, place non-conductive tape on them, or use the original packaging.

What is a Class 8 cadmium battery?

They should be labeled as Class 8, Nickel Cadmium batteries are often used in portable electronics and flashlights. These batteries must be recycled, and they do have special packing and shipping requirements. Dry cell nickel-cadmium batteries that are higher than 9-volt must be packed so that the terminals do not touch each other.

Are nickel cadmium batteries a universal waste?

Nickel-cadmium batteries are also generally considered universal waste. Disposing of these batteries in landfills can cause soil contamination and water pollution. This is why they require special packaging and disposal. Here are some of the packaging and shipping requirements for some of the most common batteries classified as universal waste.

What is a nickel-metal hydride battery?

Nickel-metal hydride batteries fall in the UN class 9 (miscellaneous dangerous goods) and hold the HS code 8507.50. These are a replacement for NiCd rechargeable batteries and are used where high power is needed like cameras. The top logistical considerations for shipping these types include:
