RecyclingVapes are not collected as part of recycling collections, but can be taken to all local Household Waste Recycling Centres. If the battery is contained in the vape and cannot be removed, then Cornwall Council advise that the whole thing go into a battery container at one of their Household Recycling Centres. If the battery is removable then the battery would go into the battery container and the vape into the small electrical container.
