Recycle Used OilHere are some tips for recycling your used oil:

Drain used oil from the engine. Then pour it into sealable containers so you can take it to a collection center. Plastic oil drain pans work well (available at most auto parts stores). Empty plastic milk bottles work well, too. They have screw-on lids, can be rinsed before use and don't cost anything. Farmers often use 55-gallon drums because they generate more oil than most households. Make certain the drum wasn't used for hazardous chemicals because these chemicals can contaminate the used oil.
· Do not mix antifreeze, gasoline or any other products or chemicals with used oil.
· Puncture the dome end of your oil filter with a screwdriver, and then drain the filter with the dome end down. Filters retain oil unless punctured because they have an anti-siphon valve.
· Take used oil to a collection center after each oil change. Storing oil can lead to leaks and spills.
· Please, only bring your oil to a used oil collection center during their normal business hours.
· Have an employee dump the used oil into the collection center's tank.
· Sign the used oil collection log sheet and indicate how much oil you deposited.
· Take your empty containers with you, so you can reuse them next time.
