What to
Do
with
Used
Oil
Did you know that used engine oil contains certain
elements that may be unhealthy for your skin and could
even cause cancer? Don’t let used oil
stay
on
your skin
for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and
water, or a good hand cleaner. Wash or properly throw
away clothing or rags containing used engine oil. (See
the manufacturer’s warnings about the use and disposal
of
oil products.)
Used oil can be a real threat to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil
from the filter before disposal. Don’t ever dispose
of
oil
by
putting it in the trash, pouring it
on
the ground, into
sewers,
or
into
streams
or
bodies
of
water. Instead,
recycle
it
by taking
it
to a place
that
collects used oil.
If
you have
a
problem properly disposing
of
your used oil,
ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling
center for help.
