But then again their is no money to be made that way. The only information I have found on home re-refining concerns the use of toilet paper used to clean the oil !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give Americans the information they need to attack a problem themselves and get out of the way!!!

But what about cooking oil that is used for frying? For households, can that be washed down the pipes? My waste water is channeled to a central sewerage.

I have Found that any dealings I have had with the owners of Kleilock Environmental, have neither been clean, fast, or reliable. I have information that they are storing used oil on property that is not even zoned for business, let alone waste material. I personally have knowledge that the reported owner has filed bankruptcy. Just a warning to anyone doing business or thinking of doing business with these people be very, very, careful. concerned and doing something about it citizen.

How often do you switch vehicles? I get at least 15 years out of those I own. Drain intervals at 25,000 won't get you close to that. I use synthetic oils and grease; much cheaper than buying new vehicles every few years. Indeed, every little bit helps... (Yes; I recycle the used oil I generate.)

That is changing oil approximately 4-6 times per year per vehicle on average. Imagine changing oil only once per year per vehicle. How much waste would it save? Extended Drain Intervals of up to 25,000 miles without compomising vehicle manufactures warranty. Saving the planets precious ecosystem because it is purely synthetic. The technology exists now with the very first fully synthetic motor oil. First developed in 1972 and improved upon since. No other oil, synthetic or natural can compare. There are more environmentally friendly fully synthetic alternatives available. Please visit http://www.ecosmartsynthetics.com to learn more. This may be just one little piece of the puzzle, but every little bit helps. an oil change every 3000 miles creates a lot of used oil to dispose of.
