Used engine oil from home car maintenance is an environmental hazard. Make sure you recycle yours responsibly.
If you change your own engine oil the used oil must be disposed of responsibly.
Here at Castrol, we understand the importance of looking after the environment by recycling used engine oil. In fact, Castrol group companies are already working on ways to make sure that every ounce of used engine oil is recycled and re-refined, as you can see at www.nexcel.co.uk
You can play your part by making sure that you dispose of your old engine oil responsibly. The simplest way to do this is to put it inside the container your new oil came in, and take it to your local council recycling centre to be disposed of.
