Used Oil - It Can Be Recycled

About the fact sheet

Used oil is a valuable resource. Even though Australians are good at recycling used oil (around 194 million litres was recycled last year), at least 60 million litres of used oil goes missing annually. By encouraging Australians to pour their used oil back into an empty oil container and take it to the local used oil facility for recycling, local governments are helping to conserve a valuable resource and protect the environment.
