An Ontario Batteries Regulation term for a person arranging transport of used consumer batteries destined for processing, reuse, refurbishing, or disposal.
Battery hauler is a transport-chain actor, not the processor. It should show custody movement between collection sites and processors for processing, reuse, refurbishing or disposal, not final processing or recycling by itself.
This page uses the Ontario Batteries Regulation source layer. Keep the hauler role separate from collection-site, processor, refurbisher, and producer responsibility organization roles, and do not generalise it into a global logistics definition.
O. Reg. 30/20: Batteries
a person who arranges for the transport of batteries that are used by a consumer in Ontario and are destined for processing, reuse, refurbishing or disposal, but does not include a person who arranges for the transport of batteries initially generated by that person
Ontario source-specific battery EPR definition under O. Reg. 30/20; do not collapse into EU, UK, India, Brazil, or Australia definitions without review.

Reviewed public draft page. Aligns with battery stewardship operations policy: separates scope gates, approvals, collection, transport, processing, registration, refurbishment, and management-obligation evidence.
Implementation records should capture hauler identifier, pickup record, collection site, destination processor, transport date, battery type, quantity/weight, manifest or transfer document, vehicle/route record, and incident status.
Battery hauler is the transport-chain control for Ontario battery evidence. It should connect pickup, custody transfer, route, destination, and quantity records so downstream traceability does not disappear between collection and processing.
