Used Oil Recycling

WRCOG’s Used Motor Oil Recycling Program has certified more than 100 collection centers, distributes used oil collection containers at events, and educates car and airplane do-it-yourselfers about used oil recycling. The program is funded by a grant from the California Integrated Waste Management Board. Zero Waste - You Make It Happen!

The cities of Banning, Beaumont, Calimesa, Corona, Murrieta, Norco, Riverside, and certain areas within Western Riverside County also offer curbside collection for used motor oil.
