From a new battery. It says dispose of properly. Can I put baking soda in it and then toss it in the dumpster?

You'd need a WHOLE bunch of baking soda! Try talking to your local dealer or parts store. They've probably got arrangements in place to take care of it.

My local county waste disposal will take hazardous materials, like batteries, for free.

Maybe they think it means pooOriginally posted by soulless kaosbut personaly I dont see a point in a 1000 you can get the same power from a properly tuned 600 with less weight and better handeling.

If you have battery acid left over from a brand new battery, and it's a re-sealable container, keep it. Someone around here will need it sooner or later.
On the other hand, if you need to be rid of it (unsealable container, etc), any battery store should be able to take it; ditto most garages, and all battery distributors...
The question I have is how did you end up with excess? Normally, new batteries are shipped either pre-filled, or with just the right amount (did you "burp" the battery afterwards?)...

I think hes refering to the lead plates in batteries, not the acid itsself.If its not broke, Hit it with a bigger hammer and blame it on cheap imports
