Hi, So, basically my lap battery has started to swell and I was wondering if anyone knew how I could dispose of it. It has gotten very swollen over the past few weeks and the touch pad as began to separate as a result. Someone, please help! I am not sure if I should just throw it out because I am scared it will explode.

Take the old battery to any battery recycler.
