Sump Oil
Around 500 million litres of lubricating
oil is sold in Australia each year. Disposing of used oil the wrong way
has the potential to pollute land, water and infrastructure.
What to do:
- Used oil, or 'sump oil' as it is sometimes called, should not be thrown away. Although it gets dirty, used oil can still be cleaned and re-used. In fact, recycled used oil can be used as an industrial burner fuel, hydraulic oil, incorporated into other products or re-refined back into new lubricating oil.
- Sump oil can be dropped off at all of our Waste & Recycling Centres.
