Not in the recycling bins !! There have been reports of these types of incidents happening across the UK for 2 years now.
Lincolnshire residents are being urged to take extra care when disposing of batteries after a fire in a bin lorry.
A crew from North Kesteven District Council (NKDC) was forced to tip rubbish onto the road in Newton, near Sleaford, after noticing a burning smell coming from their vehicle.
Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue Service said the cause of the blaze on 13 November was a lithium-ion battery.
The battery ignited when it was crushed, investigators said.
