Civil/Environmental

Have about 30 packages of 5 each of lithium batteries ( Sulfur Chloride type). Need to dispose of them but shipping to the states is expensive plus a ton of regulations. Thought of perforating them in a controlled environment with sodium bicarbonate and then encapsulating the remains ( estabilization/solidificaction process).
Any body out there with a better and no so expensive method of disposal???
Would be greatly appreciated
