(+68° F to +77° F) and 40% to 60% relative humidity.

Battery Transportation

One or Two Batteries

You can ship up to two batteries together within the United States without 

restriction. Regulations governing shipment to or within other countries may differ.

Three or More Batteries

Procedures for the transportation of three or more batteries shipped together within 

the United States are specified by the Department of Transportation (DOT) in the 

Code of Federal Regulations, CFR49, “Transportation.” An exemption to these 

regulations, DOT - E7052, covers the transport of certain hazardous materials 

classified as flammable solids. This exemption authorizes transport of lithium 

batteries by motor vehicle, rail freight, cargo vessel, and cargo-only aircraft, 

providing certain conditions are met. Transport by passenger aircraft is not 

permitted.

Shipment of depleted batteries for disposal may be subject to specific regulation of 

the countries involved or to regulations endorsed by those countries, such as the 

A Restricted Articles Regulations of the International Air Transport Association, 

Geneva, Switzerland.

For disposal, batteries must be packaged and shipped in accordance with 

transportation regulations, to a proper disposal site. The U.S. Department of 

Transportation authorizes shipment of “Lithium batteries for disposal” by motor 

vehicle only in regulation 173.1015 of CFR 49 (effective January 5, 1983). For 

additional information contact:

Although the Environmental Protection Agency at this time has no regulations 

specific to lithium batteries, the material contained may be considered toxic, 

reactive, or corrosive. The person disposing of the material is responsible for any 

hazard created in doing so. State and local regulations may exist regarding the 

disposal of these materials.

For a lithium battery material safety data sheet, contact the manufacturer.

IMPORTANT Regulations for transportation of lithium batteries are periodically 

revised.

ATTENTION Do not incinerate or dispose of lithium batteries in general trash 

collection. Explosion or violent rupture is possible. Batteries 

should be collected for disposal in a manner to prevent against 

short circuiting, compacting, or destruction of case integrity and 

hermetic seal.
