Re-refined Oil

Did you know that most car makers suggest more than 3 months or 3,000 miles in between oil changes? Following the 3,000-mile myth generates millions of gallons of unnecessary waste oil every year, which can pollute California’s natural resources. Oil doesn’t wear out, it just gets dirty! Recycling your car’s used motor oil turns it into re-refined oil, which uses less energy than new oil production and is an environmentally beneficial method of managing used oil. Used oil goes through the same process as crude oil and must pass the same tests as virgin oil. Visit the websites below for more information on re-refined oil.
