Used Motor Oil Recycling
We have to hand it to the self-proclaimed motor DIY-ers. You know exactly how to maintain your vehicle, whether it’s an oil change, topping off your fluids or checking your tire pressure – saving you loads of cash by avoiding the auto shop for simple maintenance.
But with any home project comes responsibility. Proper disposition for car fluids and products is of utmost importance. In fact, every gallon of used motor oil that is improperly discarded can contaminate 1 million gallons of drinking water, according to the U.S. EPA.
