Excess antifreeze may run out the overflow hose onto the ground. Your vehicle is the best reuser of antifreeze. Unless the antifreeze has become contaminated or been chemically broken down so that it no longer protects your vehicle, it can be used. Occasionally, however, you may need to drain the antifreeze from your vehicle and replace it with new. Recycle the antifreeze so that others might reuse it.
Recycling preserves valuable resources, protects the environment, and reduces costs.
Carefully drain used antifreeze into a clean container with a lid. Keep the antifreeze free of contaminants such as gasoline, oil, and dirt. Transport it to a local antifreeze recycling facility or have a local pickup service do so for you. If you choose to take used antifreeze to one of the sites listed on the back of this form, please call ahead to determine whether the site still accepts antifreeze, have special instructions for you, or charge a fee for their services. The prominent recycling methods for used antifreeze are distillation , ion exchang e, and filtration .
