How To Recycle Old Gasoline?

Do not pour gasoline down drains, onto the ground, or into trash

Store the old gasoline in an approved, tightly sealed gasoline container

Label the container clearly as old or stale gasoline

Keep the container away from heat, sparks, and open flames

Contact your local household hazardous waste facility

Take the gasoline to a hazardous waste collection event or drop-off site

Ask your local auto shop, marina, or recycling center if they accept old gasoline

If the gasoline is only slightly stale, mix it with fresh gasoline only if your vehicle or equipment manufacturer allows it

Use up small amounts in compatible engines only if the fuel is still safe to use

Never mix gasoline with other chemicals, oil, or solvents

Follow local regulations for transporting and disposing of fuel

If the gasoline is contaminated with water or debris, treat it as hazardous waste

Keep it out of reach of children and pets until it is disposed of properly
