All oil must be free of contaminants, including gasoline, water, paint thinner, dirt, antifreeze, etc. We strain the oil and then use it in our waste oil furnace in the Recycling Building.
Flamable contaminants can cause explosions or fires.
We have established a set schedule for waste oil to be brought to the Recycling Building. Oil brought at other times will not be accepted. The week that begins with the first Monday of each month is the waste oil collection week. Waste oil can be brought to the Recycling Building in see through or nearly see through containers. Oil that cannot be visually inspected will be rejected.
