How to Dispose of Motor Oil in Portland, ME
Portland has no daily household hazardous waste depot. ecomaine runs HHW collection on the first Saturday of the month from April through November — take motor oil on one of those dates. There is no winter collection, so store material sealed in original containers over the off-season rather than putting it in the trash.
