Responsible Disposal

Collect

• Drain into a clean, sealable container with a tight cap.
• Label it “Used Oil” and store upright on a tray or in a tub.
• Do not mix with coolant, brake cleaner, gasoline, or other fluids.

Drop off

Do not

• Pour on the ground, into drains, or into household trash.
• Burn used oil or discharge it to water or soil.
• Mix different fluids together; it may prevent recycling.

Storage

• Use intact, compatible containers or tanks; keep closed when not in use.
• Label all containers clearly as “Used Oil”.
• Keep spill kits on hand; clean up promptly.

Collection

• Schedule pickups with a licensed oil recycler/hauler.
• Keep used oil uncontaminated to preserve recyclability.
• Retain receipts/manifests per local requirements.

Close the loop

• Ask about re‑refined base oils and circular options.
• Consolidate packaging (drums/totes) for return or recycling where available.
• We can help arrange local partners and pickups.

On the water

• Never discharge any oil or oily water to the sea.
• Use bilge absorbent pads/booms; don’t use detergents that spread sheen.
• Collect used oil and filters at the dock for proper recycling.

At the marina

• Provide/locate used‑oil collection points for boaters.
• Keep containers covered and protected from rain and spray.
• Coordinate periodic pickups with licensed recyclers.

Spill readiness

• Stage spill kits where fluids are handled.
• Train staff on basic spill response and reporting requirements.
• Keep emergency contacts posted and visible.

Coolant/Antifreeze

• Store separately from oil (do not mix).
• Many recyclers accept coolant; rules vary—ask us for a local option.

ATF, gear oil & grease

• Most used‑oil programs also take ATF and gear oils—confirm locally.
• Grease: collect scrapings/absorbents for proper disposal per local rules.

Absorbents & rags

• Use dedicated oil‑only absorbents.
• Dispose or launder through approved services; don’t toss saturated rags in open bins.
