Automotive Battery Recycling & Core Return Program

Streamline Your Automotive Battery Recycling Program

Managing vehicle battery recycling at your dealership doesn't have to mean juggling spreadsheets, paper receipts, and manual rebate calculations. This Automotive Battery Recycling & Core Return Program template helps dealerships, auto repair shops, and service centers create a professional, compliant system for tracking used battery returns, documenting proper lead acid handling, and processing customer rebates—all in one organized workflow.

Built for automotive professionals who care about sustainability and compliance

Whether you're a service manager at a multi-location dealership, an independent auto shop owner, or a parts department supervisor, this template gives you everything you need to run an efficient battery recycling program. Capture customer and vehicle details, log battery specifications and core conditions, confirm lead acid handling protocols, and calculate rebates automatically based on your pricing rules—no manual math required.

The form uses conditional logic to adapt to different scenarios (warranty returns vs. customer purchases, damaged cores vs. intact returns) and Paperform's built-in calculation engine handles rebate amounts in real time, so customers know exactly what they'll receive before they leave your counter.

Automate the workflow with Stepper

Once a battery return is submitted, you can use Stepper to automate what happens next: send rebate confirmations to customers via email, update your inventory system, notify your hazardous waste coordinator, create service tickets in your shop management software, or flag damaged cores for special handling. This keeps your recycling program running smoothly without anyone needing to manually route paperwork between departments.
