Google scrap metal prices. Was quoted 30p/kg the other day, but that might not be typical.

But that doesn't tell me the "fudge factor" from the price of lead/kg to
the price for a battery/kg.

No. It's not very relevant when you have batteries, but the battery price is.

If it's that low they can skulk in the
garage a bit longer ...

equates to a fiver for a big car battery. Not a lot.
