Recycling and reuse is the message. Keeping potentially hazardous used oil and antifreeze materials out of landfills and environment is SARRC’s mandate.

With nearly 200 public drop-off points, including 37 purpose-built EcoCentres, Saskatchewan has one of the best used oil & antifreeze materials recycling networks in Canada.

Program Update: COVID-19

As we are all aware, the current situation with COVID-19 has caused a rapid change in how businesses operate. Here at SARRC, administrative support and program operation continue including timely provision of incentive payments. To date, collectors are still picking up large quantities of used oil, filters, antifreeze and containers according to their own precautions to maintain appropriate physical distances.

However, the situation with public drop-off locations is more fluid. Some EcoCentres and volunteer drop-off locations may be temporarily closed or operating with reduced hours. As each location is independently operated, please call ahead to make sure they are open. Also, please consider waiting to recycle your materials and storing them safely until the situation returns to normal.

Mother Nature has been kind to Saskatchewan. But, dumping used oil or antifreeze materials can damage earth and water. So, Let’s turn used into useful!

Recycle used oil, used oil ﬁlters, used antifreeze and used oil, antifreeze and Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) containers. It’s easy.

For do-it-yourself mechanics, farmers and small businesses, there is the province-wide collection network of nearly 200 collection points including 37 EcoCentres in major communities that will accept used oil and antifreeze materials.

Whether you live in Saskatoon, Regina, Prince Albert, Moose Jaw or any other town or city in Saskatchewan, thereʼs a collection point nearby.

For businesses and farmers generating large volumes, registered collectors will pick up used oil materials on site.

All materials recovered are recycled through registered processors. None of the materials go for landﬁll disposal or road oiling.

Since 1996, this industry-led stewardship program has been managed by the Saskatchewan Association for Resource Recovery Corp. (SARRC).
