Afterlife Recycling
When it becomes necessary to dispose of your
engine, it may be possible at recycling
centres; however, it will likely require careful disassembly first before disposal. For
further information please contact your local recycling centres for disposal advice to see
what they will accept for disposal.
Engines are primarily steel, cast iron and aluminium; and are recyclable after removal of
other parts. Larger components such as the engine block may only be handleable by a
few centres, unlike say smaller plastic components.
Most of the other parts require special disposal as they include hazardous waste, and
must be separated and declared upon disposal, including:
Fluid Disposal
You must make sure that all unused oil, fuel and coolant is drained out carefully and
disposed of correctly at a local recycling centre. Under NO circumstance must any oil,
fuel or coolant be put down any drains or leaked into waterways or the environment.
Contact local recycling centres or garages, or check their websites to find out whether
they take or recycle engine fluids. If they don't, they may be able to direct you to your
nearest drop-off point depending on the volume. Recycle your coolant/oil/fuel in distinct
well-sealed containers that are clearly labelled.
Waste Electrical Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and Battery recycling
Parts contain WEEE waste or batteries should not be disposed of in your
domestic waste. You should recycle WEEE or batteries in accordance
with your local authority or recycling centre’s directions. Batteries will
need declaring separately for safety purposes.
Packaging materials
that are unwanted should be sorted, with
cardboard, wood, and paper recycled where possible. Some Local
Authorities and recycling centres may accept plastic bags, films and
bubble wrap for recycling. Polystyrene is very rarely recycled and
may have to be disposed of in general rubbish, inside bags.
For further information about disposal please contact your Local Authority. You can also
get more advice and guidance about recycling in your area at the following website
