There is a 'core charge' for a car battery if you don't have an old one. 
For some reason that doesn't apply for smaller motorcycle batteries. When 
I dropped some old bike batteries off at a recycler I was surprised to get 
paid for them. Not much, but better than a charge for taking them.

Unlike a lot of recycling projects there is money in batteries. Aluminum 
cans are also profitable, as is cardboard. 

One of the stranger loads I hauled was beer that had passed its shelf 
life. A recycler was able to produce enough industrial ethanol to make it 
pay. There were also able to ferment soft drinks and get alcohol. I did 
notice a pallet of diet beverages that had slipped in.
