Hi guys,
I know this has been brought up before but thought I could add to the topic by providing a handy list I found of all the Waste Transfer Stations that offer free disposal (up to 20-30 litres) of used engine oil and the containers. It also has the address and hours of opening. http://www.aip.com.au/pdf/health/program_site_list.pdf The setup at the Darebin Station is quite good; they have a big bin for the oil and smaller bins right next to it for the bottles. I imagine the other transfer stations would be similar. Cheers Last edited by ClingWrap; 15-08-2012 at 11:27 AM. Reason: Formatting issue corrected |

I see all the Queensland ones are in the SE.
I guess transport costs would be the reason. |
