How to recycle your used motor oil

Here at Castrol, we understand the importance of looking after the environment by recycling used motor oil. In fact, Castrol group companies are already working on ways to make sure that every ounce of used motor 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 motor oil responsibly. The simplest way to do this is to put it inside the container your new oil came in, and either return it to the retailer you bought it from, or take it to your nearest auto workshop.

 

If neither of these options is available, you can take your used motor oil and filter to your nearest recycling location, which you can find via the United States Environmental Protection Agency website.
