Waste Disposal & Recycling

TRASH : RECYCLING : HOLLY HILL

How Do I Recycle? : About Recycling : List of Recylables

WHAT DO I DO WITH WASTE MOTOR OIL?

Step 1: Determine what type of oil you have. Know where the oil was removed from or read the label on the container (if any). Separate waste motor oils from other waste oils. BE SAFE! Never use your sense of smell or taste to determine oil type. Avoid handling waste oil without gloves or eye protection.

Step 3: Bring waste motor oil to the oil collection point on the Holly Hill Resource Recovery Facility (Transfer Station), adjacent to the scale house from 7:00am to 3:00pm weekdays, 7:00am to 12:00pm on Saturday.
