Used Oil Removal FAQs

What kinds of oil do you accept?

 

We accept crankcase and hydraulic oils as well as Fuel oils #2 & 4 or #6 but it must be heated.

​

How do I store my oil?

 

Oil must be stored in 55 gallon drums or in a 250 gallon or larger tote/tank. There needs to be a 2 inch opening to allow access to the tank.

​

What if I have smaller quantities of oil?

 

If you have oil stored in 5 gallon buckets, we are able to accept amounts up to 25 gallons at a time at our shop. If you are dropping off oil direct to us come in the office to speak with reception for instruction.

​

How do I schedule a pick up or inquire about price?

 

To schedule an oil pick up you may contact our office (269) 792-6591 or inquire via email contactus@stoddardoil.com.

​

What do I need to do to get my tank ready for a pick up?

​

To have your tank ready for pick up, make sure any parts or debris are moved away from the tank/barrel to allow driver access to the tank/barrel opening. If the barrels are stored in a small area make sure they are accessible for a hose to access.

​

My oil contains used anti-freeze and/or water. Is that an issue?

​

If your oil contains water and/or anti-freeze, that is no issue for us to pick up. There may be an extra cost for any mixes though. If you would like to inquire about price for removal of any mixes, call our office (269) 792-6591.

​

Does my oil need to be tested?

​

There is a first time, then once a year test conducted on all incoming oils to make sure it meets our requirements for classification as a non hazardous waste.
