Oil and Antifreeze Recycling
The City of Bozeman operates an oil and antifreeze recycling program located in the Vehicle Maintenance Shop at:
814 North Bozeman Ave.
P.O. Box 1230
Bozeman, MT 59771
406.582.3200
Drop off hours are 8am to 5pm, Monday thru Friday.
In an effort to prevent the improper disposal of used oil and antifreeze the City of Bozeman recycling program collects used oil and antifreeze at no cost for city and Gallatin County residents. It is illegal to pour motor oil on the ground, in alleys and especially down city storm or sanitary sewers. The effects of used motor oil on the environment can be devastating when not properly disposed of. For example one oil change has the potential to contaminate up to 1 million gallons of fresh water according to the EPA. The City of Bozeman encourages citizens to use this service in order to keep Bozeman and Montana a healthy and clean place for generations to come.
Rules of use:
No commercial waste oil or antifreeze
Maximum of 5 gallons per day
Antifreeze and crank case oil only
Oil and antifreeze must not be mixed with other chemicals
No gasoline, paint thinner, solvents, turpentine, pesticides, creosote, industrial or hazardous wastes.
No leaking containers
All participants must check in with the Vehicle Maintenance shop
