Date: Tuesday, 11 July 1989 11:32:48 EDT From: Reg.Willson@ius1.cs.cmu.edu To: "Stephen P. Hoover" , Ted Lehr , Harry Q. Subject: Re: used motor oil recycling Thanks for all of the responses folks. I've posted the following summary on the CS general bboard. -- Reg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The most convenient place seems to be the Sears Automotive center in East Liberty (363-9228), thanks to Dean Rubine and Steve Hoover for suggesting this one. Two other local places that were suggested, Rudy Molner's on Baum and Aamco Transmissions on Baum, accept oil during the winter months for their waste oil burners. They stop accepting oil when their tanks fill up in the summer. Thanks also to several people who provided Joe Tebelskis' list of recycling centers, appearing below. As usual I'll forward this to Dr. Bovik for future reference. Volunteer recycling centers that accept all materials, including oil: In Sewickley, at the YMCA on Blackburn Road, on the 3rd Saturday of each month, from 8:30 to 11:30 am.
