Great question. While they may not be big like the other batteries you mentioned, they are still lithium batteries and can be brought to any Call2Recycle battery drop-off found at many Home Depot or Staples stores. Those battery drop-off boxes do not accept Alkaline, but do accept any lithium batteries- even if they are AA or AAA. You can also check with your local Household Hazardous Waste program to see if they have any special lithium battery return program or drop-off event.

They’re not the big scooter/bicycle/car lithiums, but don’t seem to be addressed in many recycling searched.

Many recycling centers don’t accept Li batteries. This is why they require safe disposal that can safely separate the materials for future use. Please dispose of Li batteries though Call2Recycle, you household hazardous waste location, or through other battery recycling companies that can handle the material safely.

Will the Li be recycled at most recycling centres, even from small batteries like this?

For Lithium Coin Batteries, if you have a lot of them, you can purchase a send in box from Call2Recycle. Otherwise, in most areas, it would be recommended to bring them to your local household hazardous waste location.
