![]() What in a car you would dispose of in 3 months, i would have to save my snowblower oil for 20 years to get the same exact amount of used oil in a container. the amount of oil accumulated on a rag doing regular maintenance on a car. The amount of oil for disposal in a snowblower/lawnmower is miniscule compared to a car, equivalent to. Lawnmower > 0.5 liters per change > 1 oil change per 2 years > 1/4 liters per year of used oil.Ī car will use and dispose of 5 liters of used oil in 3 months.Ī snowblower / lawnmower will use and dispose of 5 liters of oil is 5 years OR 60 months.Ī car will use and dispose of 20 liters of used oil in 1 year.Ī snowblower / lawnmower will use and dispose of 20 liters of oil is 80 years. Snowblower > 0.5 liters per change > 1 oil change per 2 years > 1/4 liters per year of used oil. Otherwise just take it to you local disposal center.Ĭar > 5 liters per change > 4 oil changes per year > 20 liters per year of used oil. If you want to take shortcuts, just drop it off a cdn tire, leave it in front of their garage door, and someone there will dispose of it. I put the old oil back into the new oil containers, after i put the new oil in my car of course. I keep it in my garage, and when i feel there’s too much, i bring it to the disposal center. ![]() Why wouldn’t you just bring it to get properly disposed? I always bring my oil to the waste disposal center. Hypothetically i might drain the used oil, then empty into a double plastic grocery shopping bag, double tie.and rumour is that bag just might make it into the regular garbage bin at the side of the house.or perhaps i take to the recyclers as most will say that they do.Ġ.5 litres is very small, many cars lose that or more every 3 months onto the surface of their driveways as their rear engine seals have shrunk.ĥ.0 litres on the other hand is a fairly large amount, will be interesting to hear what people unofficially admit to. I don't do my car oil changes at home only my snowblower and lawn mower, each machine takes about 0.5 to 0.7 Litres of oil so very small amount. A few might say recycler and mean it, most will say it to be politically correct. Lets see how many posts you get admitting to where they dispose of the old oil, my guess is very few will admit to their solution. What do you all do with the used oil? I feel would be a pita to bring it to a recycling center
