Keeping Motor Oil out of our Waterways is Easy

Each day, used motor oil ends up in local creeks and streams because of improper disposal.  It pollutes the environment and prevents recycling of an important resource.   Within the City of Elk Grove, we have a simple solution for disposal of your used oil and used oil filters.

How to Dispose of Your Used Oil

In the City of Elk Grove, residents may leave their used oil and used oil filters curbside on regular recycle service day, in containers provided by the city, free of charge.  Just place your used oil container(s) and used oil filter (filter should be placed inside a sealed plastic bag) next to your recycle cart on your recycle service day.  When Allied removes the old used oil containers, they will leave the same number of empty containers for your convenience.

Residents can also recycle their used motor oil and filters at one of the Certified Used Oil Recycling Centers located throughout Elk Grove (see list below).

Free used oil containers are located at City Hall, 8401 Laguna Palms Way or Allied Waste will deliver them to your home by calling (916) 635-2500.  .

Zero Waste - You Make it Happen!


Rules for our Curbside Used Oil Collection Program


Oil Changing

  • Do not place oil or oil filters on or in any of the Recycling, Trash & Green Waste carts.
  • If not using a City container, place used oil in a clear, one-gallon plastic jug with a twist-top lid. Container may be new or reused.
  • Place oil filters in a sealed plastic bag and set on ground next to jug.
  • Oil and filters will be collected on the same day your recycling cart is serviced. Do not place oil and filters out for pick-up on green waste collection day.
  • Please do not put out more than three (3) gallons of used motor oil per recycling collection day.
