Recycle Wastes. It’s illegal and thoughtless
to put used engine oil in the trash, down a
drain, or on the ground. Used oil, gasoline,
coolant, and cleaning solvents contain
poisons that can hurt refuse workers and
contaminate our drinking water, lakes,
rivers, and oceans. Before changing your
oil, make sure you have the proper
containers. Put oil and other toxic wastes in
separate sealed containers and take them to
a recycling center. Call your local or state
office of public works or environmental
services to find a recycling center in your
area, and to get instructions on how to
dispose of non-recyclable wastes.
