Our Ambassador Team will have a booth onsite at the Downtown Port Coquitlam Car Show taking place on August 20th from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. located at 2248 Elgin Ave, Port Coquitlam, BC V3C 2B2. Two community ambassadors will be available to answer questions regarding the importance of recycling used oil and antifreeze materials and educate residents and visitors about the many convenient locations to recycle used oil and antifreeze materials across B.C.

“Interchange Recycling is proud to be supporting the Downtown Port Coquitlam Car Show as it is a premier classic car show,” said David Lawes, CEO, Interchange Recycling. “Our Interchange Recycling ambassador team is looking forward to speaking with event guests about the importance of recycling used oil and antifreeze materials. The ambassadors will also be highlighting the process of how used oil is re-refined into new oils, and they will be available to answer questions regarding the free, safe, and convenient locations of used oil and antifreeze recycling centres across B.C.”

Used oil is a valuable resource and if it is recycled at one of Interchange Recycling’s dedicated public recycling centres it can be recovered and re-used. Used oil can be re-refined into new lubricating oil or material inputs for manufacturing or energy products. Additionally, used oil filters contain metal, which is recycled into metal products like rebar, nails, and wire. Used oil and antifreeze containers are recycled and used to manufacture new oil containers, drainage tiles, and parking curbs. Used antifreeze is refined and reused as new automotive antifreeze. A comprehensive listing of all the public recycling centres across B.C. can be found at https://interchangerecycling.com/find-a-recycling-centre.
