Drained your Antifreeze?...
 
Recycle it or dispose of it properly!
Antifreeze is poisonous

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.
You may take used antifreeze to one of the Erie County businesses listed below. Please call first to check if there is a cost or limit on quantity.

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.
