Oil Recycling

Oil recycling in cooperation with Universal Environmental, Diversified Recycling, and SCDHEC.

    • Put your used oil in a clean plastic container with a tight lid.
    • We can also accept motor oil, gear oil, fuel oil, heating oil, diesel fuel, kerosene, automatic transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and hydraulic fluid in our used oil collection tanks.
    • Don’t mix oil with water, brake fluid, anti-freeze, refrigeration oil, paint, paint thinner/varsol, gasoline, or any solvent or cleaner as these will make the oil unsuitable for recycling.
  • Used oil filters (uncrushed)
    • Dispose of the oil filter only after it has been properly drained in our collection drums at our facilities
    • Drain the old one by punching an air hole in the top and draining for a minimum of 12 hours if it is hot or 24 hours if it is cold, we also provide drain racks at our collection facilities to drain your bottles
  • Used oil bottles

Collection Location

Recycling the motor oil from one oil change protects a million gallons of drinking water - or a year's supply for 50 people!
