Alkaline batteries go in the garbage. My understanding is there really isn't much in the way of recycling programs that actually deal with alkaline batteries, because there isn't much to recover/recycle. So I always wonder with all these people being careful to recycle their dead Duracells, if the whole lot ends up in the dump anyway.

Rechargeable or other battery types I'll hold on to and recycle.
