Sure would be great if they took small batteries at the curb however they feel this not necessary and it would involve a little change can not do that.

This place is a crap shoot. Prices fluctuate tremendously from person to person and same with their attitudes. Good luck! Hopefully you get one of their friendly and helpful employees.
