    You dump it at supercheap too

    • Can you dispose of used oils as well?

        • Oh I thought he meant do an oil change in their carpark

      • Interested in the response to this. Have tons of used oil sitting in my garage from oil changes (involved in Motorsport so short intervals) and the next CCE near me is April 14, whereas I'm at SCA every couple of weeks.

        • They have a bin out front of my local. I just drop it in there.

        • Most waste transfer stations(tips) will take 20l no charge.

      If you're driving an EV, then probably not applicable.

      But the Event accepts other shits like

      • Fluorescent globes and tubes
      • Pesticides and herbicides
      • Poisons
      • Paint and paint-related products
      • Car and household batteries
      • cooking oils
      • Hobby chemicals, etc.

    Some councils take oil as well

      Most are limited to 10L I think.

      Now if only I can get my hands on 50,000 metric tons of used engine oil, it would be great as they are sold in some countries as a fuel

      • are you collecting? I've got about 5L of used engine oil (fully synthetic).

        • +1

          Yes. But only in 1000l ibc for now.

  • New coat of oil on outdoor furniture every year.
