You have a PM, Alns.

Would garlic and a crucifix help?

Maybe Ron.  :-\

I'd bring a bottle of holy water, a wooden stake and a gun loaded with silver bullets, just in case!  :D

As per b4ndit's post we get £5 for normal batteries and £7 for big 'uns.

I'm told that the scrappy folk get £20 per battery at the scrapyard. No idea if this is true though.

Sounds high, last time I weighed some loco batteries in we were getting about £450 a ton

I can see them having a value due to the metals, however I would ask if the cost of disposal of the acid would cost what you’d get for the metals?
