    Honest question : why would anyone need or want to drop off electronics, paint, light bulbs, or batteries at a grocery store? Why not drop it off at an appropriate type place? Example the hardware store will take light bulbs.

      Oh, plenty of grocery stores sell these things, so it would be nice to be able to return them at the same place. This matters especially for people who don’t drive because the dedicated place may be difficult to get to by transit, but it also might just be out of the way for most people which means they’re kind of encouraged to be lazy and just throw it out in the regular trash.
