Engine oil disposal
What do you need to know as a car dealership?

Disposing of used motor oil? Then you have to deal with strict environmental regulations. This is because motor oil is considered hazardous waste. For garages and auto repair shops, this means: you are allowed to use this form of waste oil Do not simply dispose of it yourself. You must use a licensed collector.

At Koeweit Oil Trading, we arrange waste management for hundreds of automotive companies. Reliable, fast and fully compliant with laws and regulations.

Legal obligations when
draining engine oil

Once engine oil comes out of a vehicle, it falls under the hazardous waste rules. This means, among other things:

  • You must store the oil in approved, leak-proof drums or tanks.

  • Disposal must be registered through the National Waste Notification Point (LMA).

  • Only authorized collectors may transport and process this type of waste.

That may sound like a lot of administration, but we are happy to take that worry off your hands. As a certified collector, we ensure that your waste stream is collected, recorded and recycled correctly.

Motor Oil in the Circular Economy

From waste to raw material:
Engine oil in the circular economy

What happens to your used engine oil? It gets a second life with us. Through our parent company Puraglobe we convert collected oil into high-quality base oil (Group III/III+), using patented HyLube™ technology.

That circular oil then finds its way back into new motor oil, lubricants for fine mechanics and even plastic production, among other things. And that with up to 80% less CO₂ emissions than traditional production. Together, we are making the chain future-proof.

Waste is raw material in the making. And you contribute to that.
