Motor oil may NOT be disposed of in our dumpsters

recycleoilMotor oil may NOT be disposed of in our dumpsters! It’s so easy to dispose of properly that it’s just pure laziness and disregard for the environment to do what this person did. And just think about the potential cost of the environmental cleanup if this container had been punctured by a piece of broken glass. All of us would be paying for the thoughtless act of one individual. Advance Auto takes used oil for free or you can drop it off at the Recycling Center for 50 cents a gallon if you have an annual sticker. Valvoline on Route 7 is happy to have it because it’s used for heat. Many other places in Town take it for free, too. You can also drop it off for free at the Town’s annual Hazardous Waste Day in September.

PLEASE BE RESPONSIBLE.
