![]() Trade in your used oil filter for one of ours…Free! Each year Californians use 67 million automotive oil filters. Those filters are considered hazardous waste and banned from landfills, but they’re completely recyclable. If we recycled all of the steel in used oil filters each year, we’d have enough steel to build three large sports stadiums! If you’re a Do-It-Yourselfer, consider taking advantage of our filter exchange events. You’ll dispose of and recycle your filter and walk away with a brand new free filter. Our next exchange event is this Saturday, May 20 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at O’Reilly Auto Parts (8751 Elk Grove Blvd.) Learn more. |
