The City of Steinbach would like to remind the public that the next Oil Recycling Day is set for Wednesday, June 11, 2014, from 9am to 5pm.

Bring your used oil to the Eco Centre at the Steinbach Landfill (104 Hanover Rd. E.) and receive new oil free. For every 5L of used oil, receive a coupon to pick up 1L of Co-op 5W-30 oil free  (Maximum of 12L free).  Also, enjoy a hot dog and drink for $2 from 11am-2pm.

The City notes that everyone needs to chip-in and do their part to create a sustainable environment. Used oil, used oil filters, and used plastic oil containers need to be disposed of properly so they can be recycled into useful products instead of threatening our environment. Recycle used oil, free of charge, at the Steinbach Eco Centre, located at the Steinbach Landfill site.

For more information about the Steinbach Eco-Centre or Oil Recycling Day, please e-mail ewallman@steinbach.ca or call 204-346-6500.

Oil Recycling Day is an annual event in June, held to promote the network of Eco Centres and encourage Steinbach and area residents to safely dispose of used oil, used oil filters and containers. This event is hosted by the Manitoba Association for Resource Recovery Corporation (MARRC).

A reminder that used oil and tires can be recycled year round at the Steinbach Landfill’s Eco Centre, located at 104 Hanover Road East.
