Share oil type, approximate quantity, storage method and pickup location.
Used oil collection
Sell your used oil through a documented channel.
We collect used and waste oil from factories, workshops, power plants and fleets. Pickup is planned around oil condition, quantity, location and the paperwork required for your records.

B. Statutory contaminant screen - Schedule V Part A
| CONTAMINANT | MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE | LAB METHOD |
|---|---|---|
| Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) | <2 mg/kg (ppm) | Validated GC method |
| Lead (Pb) | ≤100 mg/kg | Validated metals method |
| Arsenic (As) | ≤5 mg/kg | Validated metals method |

RECEIVING RULE Hold and investigate any load suspected to contain petrol, chlorinated solvents, antifreeze/glycol, transformer oil or unknown chemicals. Accept only within authorised waste categories and approved receiving procedures.
CLASSIFICATION Commercial limits in Section A are proposed Rerol targets, not limits in Schedule V. Schedule V values in Section B are the cited regulatory screening limits; verify current amendments and permit conditions.
REFERENCE BASIS Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, 2016 - Schedule V Part A; Rerol internal QC testing template.
Collection process
Four steps from stored oil to documented pickup.
Used oil condition and contamination affect recovery and commercial value, so every enquiry starts with the essentials.
Test a sample
Density, viscosity, water, sediment and other relevant properties are reviewed.
Plan collection
Pickup date, vehicle, containers and site coordination are confirmed.
Document the movement
The applicable collection and transport records are provided for the transaction.
Generators
Who the service is designed for.
Collection scope is confirmed against quantity, oil condition and location.
Factories
Maintenance oil and industrial used oil stored for authorised removal.
Workshops
Used engine and gear oil from regular service operations.
Transport fleets
Consolidated pickup from depots, bus fleets and vehicle operators.
Power and DG operators
Used lubricating oil from generator and plant maintenance.
Industrial maintenance teams
Hydraulic, turbine, compressor and gear oil streams.
Large generators
Planned collection with the applicable authorisation and record checks.
