To kick off the new year right, we’re happy to announce that we have partnered with Interchange Recycling bringing used oil, used antifreeze, oil & antifreeze containers, and oil filters recycling to Galiano. We are now accepting the following materials through the Interchange Recycling Program:
Oil – any petroleum or synthetic crankcase oil, engine oil, hydraulic fluid, transmission fluid, gear oil, heat transfer fluid or other fluid used for lubricating purposes in machinery or equipment.
Oil Filters – any spin-on or element oil filter used in hydraulic, transmission or internal combustion engine applications – includes diesel fuel filters but does not include gasoline fuel filters.
Oil Containers – any plastic container with a capacity of less than 50 litres that is manufactured to hold oil.
Antifreeze – any ethylene glycol or propylene glycol vehicle engine coolant.
Antifreeze Containers – any plastic container with a capacity of less than 50 litres that is manufactured to hold antifreeze.
Please note that all materials will be assessed by staff members; cross-contaminated or diluted products will not be accepted.
To learn more about the program, speak with our staff at the depot who will be available to guide you through the process.
