USED ANTIFREEZE DISPOSAL
Our Antifreeze Recycling Service
Antifreeze is a liquid added to vehicle engines to regulate temperature by lowering the freezing point and raising the boiling point of the cooling system. It prevents the engine coolant from freezing in cold temperatures and overheating in hot conditions. The main components include ethylene glycol (most common, toxic) and propylene glycol (less toxic, used in some eco-friendly or food-related applications).
With our waste disposal and recycling services, businesses can ensure their waste is safely disposed of safely and securely. We pride ourselves on providing transparent, compliant and sustainable services for businesses requiring hazardous waste collections.
Used antifreeze is hazardous waste and may contain heavy metals or other contaminants. It must be collected, stored, and disposed of in line with environmental regulations. Pouring it down drains or into the ground is illegal and harmful to wildlife and water sources. Even after use, antifreeze containers may contain residue of the chemical. This means the waste is still classified as hazardous, and must be disposed of in line with UK guidelines.
