If a business does not comply with the obligation to return – so there is no container in the shop – expected to be fined, with no exceptions. But if the shop manager steps in the right time the collecting of the batteries do not cause any plus weight. There is no other issue to be addressed, just indicate the demand on the website of Re'lem Kht.(www.relem.hu), and the company exports the container to the shop and then deliver if it is full, free of charge.
