SARRC’s mandate is to keep potentially hazardous used oil and antifreeze materials out of Saskatchewan’s landfills and environment through recycling and reuse.

CLICK here to see our current annual report for our successes.

With 37 EcoCentres and nearly 150 public drop-off points, Saskatchewan has one of the best used oil and antifreeze materials recycling networks in Canada.

CLICK here for SARRC’s current annual report for more details.

In 2018, 18.3 million litres of used oil, 1.9 million used oil filters, half a million kilograms of plastic containers and 258,000 litres of used antifreeze were recovered and recycled.

Informing Saskatchewan residents of the importance and ease of recycling used oil and antifreeze materials requires continuing communications.

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 36 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).
