How do you do Waste recycling ?

19 Aug Posted by in Recycle | 2 comments

Question by rick: How do you do Waste recycling ?
How do you dispose of paper/cloth which you use for checking engine oil, since it is a hazardous waste.

Also do you use paper towel or newspaper or cloth ?

Answer by MotoMan
A single paper towel with a touch of oil on it isn’t quite hazardous waste. However if you had a lot oily towels then there is reason for concern.

Oily paper does not recycle well, so I usually place my oily paper towels in the solid waste. I typically use a used paper towel to check the oil level. When I say “used” that means I’ve already used the towel to clean windows or something not too dirty.

    In a pail and dropped at the appropriate place at the dump, we save clothing that is not good enough for the thrift store and cut it up for rags
