ANTIFREEZE IS HIGHLY POISONOUS
Antifreeze is highly poisonous to animals and people. Its sweet flavor attracts children, pets, and other animals, so always clean up spills, store securely and dispose of it carefully.
NEVER pour antifreeze down an outdoor storm sewer, on the ground or in a ditch, as it may drain to a lake or stream and harm fish and wildlife.
WHERE TO RECYCLE ANTIFREEZE
Several area auto repair shops accept used antifreeze from do-it-yourselfers. The antifreeze is added to the antifreeze from their business and collected by a reputable recycler.
To recycle antifreeze, it must not be mixed with oil or any other
material.
HOW TO DISPOSE OF ANTIFREEZE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SEPTIC TANK, and your drain is a connected to a municipal wastewater treatment system, used antifreeze can be diluted thoroughly with water and poured down the drain, or flushed down the toilet. NEVER dispose of antifreeze down the drain if you have a septic tank. Recycle it instead.
