Terrapure recycles lead batteries and sorts other chemistries for third-party recycling. It also processes selected industrial materials useful to lead smelting. Greenflow is a practical next call for other hazardous waste at your plant. You can keep your battery arrangement and give us the remaining inventory to assess, or ask us to review batteries separately by chemistry and condition.
GREENFLOW VS TERRAPURECompare providers
Batteries have a destination. Give the other waste a plan.
Your battery-recycling arrangement may work well while old chemicals and process waste remain in storage. Bring those other materials to Greenflow. We'll assess the inventory for your Ontario plant, explain what we can collect and work through preparation and pricing before you approve removal.

| Main waste types | Hazardous waste across your facility. We assess collection requirements and review battery needs separately. | Battery recycling and material recovery. Focuses on lead and plastics recovered from batteries. |
| Battery acceptance | Battery acceptance checked first. We review chemistry and condition before including any battery collection in your proposal. | Lead batteries recycled directly. Sorts other chemistries for third-party recycling. |

Why choose Greenflow
Put the waiting containers on the collection plan.
Show us the old chemicals and process waste that have accumulated, as well as what production continues to generate. We'll work through acceptance, quantities and preparation with you, then explain the proposed collection. A one-time cleanout and an ongoing requirement can be discussed separately.
Keep a working battery arrangement in place.
You don't have to move the battery program to discuss other waste with Greenflow. Tell us what your recycler will continue to handle and which materials you want us to assess. That keeps the proposed collection clear without treating a battery purchase and hazardous-waste removal as the same transaction.
Add a plan for the plant's other waste
Keep the battery arrangement that works and identify the materials you want Greenflow to handle.
Your next steps
Identify each material
Send the chemical and process-waste inventory, quantities, containers and site address. Add battery chemistry and condition separately if you want those assessed too.
Review the quote
We'll confirm which materials we can include and explain the price. Keep any existing battery purchase commitments visible.
Arrange collection
Agree pickup with your Greenflow contact, who will also help with shipment records and billing.
Questions before you switch
Can I keep a battery recycler and use Greenflow for other waste?
Yes, we can review the other materials separately. Tell us which waste you want quoted and what your recycler will continue to handle.
Can Greenflow accept damaged lithium batteries?
We must review them before offering collection. Send the chemistry, damage, quantity and storage details; acceptance is not automatic.
Will Greenflow buy our used batteries?
A collection inquiry does not confirm a purchase. Tell us whether you're seeking removal, a material purchase or both so we can explain what we can offer.
BRING US THE COMPLICATED PART
Let's work through the other waste at your plant.
Send the chemical and process-waste inventory with your address. List batteries separately if you also want them assessed.
