    I thought that 110's dumped their own oil, and all you had to do was fill it up again???

    Sorry Brian,
    But that is BLOODY IRRESPONSIBLE.

    Where do you think the oil is going? down to the water table, contaminating the water.

    Give me a break,
    Peter

    Hi Jon,
    As others have said, the various Waste Transfer Stations in Sydney accept waste oil foc. However, I believe that there is a daily limit (to prevent abuse by commercial operations).

    Best Wishes,
    Peter
