General Information

Transport waste motor oil into a clean, unbreakable container with a tight-fitting cap such as a one-gallon plastic milk jug or sealable oil pan. As plastic containers containing oil cannot be recycled, consider reusing them if possible. Waste oil should be free of gasoline, antifreeze, paint thinner, solvents, dirt, leaves, water, etc.
