There’s only one answer for used motor oil. Recycling.


Interchange Recycling helps prevent automotive fluids and materials from harming the environment and turns them into something useful. Importantly, we balance the needs of industry and community across BC and Yukon.

Did you know recycling is the safest, most efficient and most cost-effective way to reclaim the value of automotive materials like oil? It’s easy to do your part. Simply bring your used oil, antifreeze and other program materials to one of our Public Recycling Centres, Community Round Up Events or have your car serviced at a certified oil change shop.

What We Do

Currently, Interchange Recycling focuses on four core materials. Every year, we recycle about 50 million litres of oil, 6 million oil filters, 3 million litres of antifreeze and 1.7 million kilograms of plastic containers. Plus, we’re always examining new automotive and industrial products to bring into our recycling process.

We believe the only acceptable results of our work are better environmental and economic outcomes for everyone.
