Every day in the City of Baldwin Park thousands of cars, trucks, buses, and other vehicles drive up-and-down our streets. Whether making deliveries, taking our kids to school, or heading off to shop, all these vehicles share something in common; they all use motor oil in their engines.
As motor oil gets old, it gets dirty and contaminated with hazardous chemicals including arsenic, lead, and cadmium. Incorrectly disposed of, used motor oil can become a major source of environmental pollution. When improperly disposed of or spilled, this used motor oil will contaminate soil and water while causing a messy cleanup. |
