Recycling Used Oil Filters

Filters are considered hazardous waste and are banned from landfills, but they are completely recyclable. In fact, filters sold annually in California can be recycled into 67 million pounds of steel, which is enough to build three large sports stadiums.

If you do your own oil changes, be sure to take your used oil and filters to one of the three used oil certified collection centers in Diamond Bar:

Autozone
303 S Diamond Bar Blvd.
open daily 8 a.m.-9 p.m

Firestone Tires
1150 S. Grand Avenue
Mon.-Sat.   7 a.m.-6 p.m
Sun. 8 a.m.-6 p.m

Jiffy Lube
2845 S. Diamond Bar Blvd.
open daily 8 a.m.-5 p.m

Diamond Bar residents can also receive a used oil recycling kit, which includes a free funnel, oil container and other oil recycling items! (limited quantities). To reserve your free used oil recycling kit, schedule an appointment.

This program is brought to you by the City of Diamond Bar, funded by a grant from CalRecycle. For questions, call (909) 839-7015 or visit the City website.
