When it comes to motor oil, we can take care of that.
Just drop it off to our Ferguson Street recycling centre.
This oil can be recovered and either recycled or re-refined.
Used motor oil is hazardous. It contains plenty of other contaminants – lead, cadmium, chromium, arsenic, dioxins, benzene. Inappropriate disposal has the potential to harm fish, plants and humans.
You need to drop your oil off in leak-proof containers, while our centre is staffed. Never leave it.

You can now recycle your soft plastics right here in Palmerston North.
