Recycling & Waste

Oil Filters

Legal Considerations

It is illegal to place automotive oil, filters, and most automotive fluids in the trash, on the ground, in water, down a sewer, or in the storm drain.

Disposal

Some automotive shops accept used oil for free and may accept other automotive fluids and oil filters for a fee. Call first. 

Drop used oil filters off at a household hazardous waste collection site. For convenience, a 24/7 used oil and filter collection shed is located in Arden Hills. There is no disposal fee at either of these sites.
