Local jurisdictions have contracts with franchised hauling companies to provide service for collection of garbage, recycling, yard debris and food scraps, and motor oil/filters for residences. Curbside services are also available for businesses.
Curbside recycling for motor oil and filters is available at no cost to all residential hauling company customers.
Change your oil and drain your filter for 48 hours.
Transfer oil to an oil recycling container or a clean, dry plastic jug with a screw-on lid.
Place oil filter in a zip closure bag.
Place both next to your blue cart for pickup.
Call the hauler for your area before setting out items.
