California Battery Recycling FeeUpdated 2 months ago

What is the California Battery Recycling Fee?

Under California law  SB 1215, brands selling products with an embedded battery are required to add a small recycling fee for orders shipped within the state. It's not a SURI charge, it goes straight to California to help fund safe collection and recycling of battery-powered products, including brushes like yours once they've reached the end of their journey.

Will I see this at checkout?
Yes, it'll show up as its own line, separate from the price of your brush. It's 1.5% of the product price, capped at $15.

Curious about where it goes?
Every cent goes to California to support safe collection, transport, and recycling of battery-embedded electronics. You can read more on the CalRecycle website.
