One would HOPE they would dispose of the dead batteries in a responsible fashion, but then one would have hoped that the chemical companies responsible for the Love Canal horror would have disposed of their chemicals responsibly.
There is nothing inherent in a battery replacement company which de facto guarantees that they will be environmentally safe in the handling of the dead batteries.
Most probably will, but some will just place them in their dumpsters along with their soda cans and lunch leftovers.
