Since I am not getting out sledding this year - cleaning up the shop is a project.

My question is what to do with the 50L of used motor oil I have collected and the containers. I have the oil in 2 x 25L containers that I would like to keep and then various 1L and up containers. Is there anyone in the Edmonton/Sherwood Park area that has one of thoses oil burners that would like some free fuel??? Is there any location to drop off the containers for recycling?

There is a company that I use out of Loyd called "Little Dipper" They run all over the province and pick up used oil, pails, filters and such and pay you for it (not retirement money by any stretch) They might have a minumum amount they pickup though but worth the call...1.888.333.0657

I'm not sure the girls are going to clean up that easily, that used motor oil might be a little tough getting off.... but I'd volunteer and give them a hand or two..... :D :D
