Some recycling centers will accept gas and recondition it or recycle it safely. Your city’s government officials should be able to direct you to the right recycling place. Then, call the recycling location in advance to see if they have any particular instructions that you’ll need to follow. This is slightly different than recycling because a waste center will usually dispose of, not repurpose, your gasoline. You can still talk with local government management to determine where a waste disposal site is near you. Call ahead to find out restrictions, operating hours, and what they’ll accept.  Some hazardous waste disposal centers are free only to citizens from a particular area, with outsiders forced to pay a fee for disposal. In less populated areas, your local waste disposal may only be open very limited hours. This is another reason to call ahead. Centers may also have a maximum amount of gas, such as 10 gallons (37.9 L), that they will accept in a single visit or from an individual over a particular time period. If you have a large amount of gasoline to get rid of or if there aren’t other options in your area, you may need to pay for a private disposal service. Find one of these businesses by entering “private hazardous waste disposal” and your location into a search engine. Ask about their fees when you call. You should also check that they are licensed by local authorities. These types of services can be costly, however, they are much cheaper than paying a fine for hazardous dumping. To encourage citizens to safely dispose of waste, many cities hold regularly scheduled recycling and disposal events. They usually publish a list of the details as well as the accepted materials, such as gas, well in advance. To find out if this is an option for you, reach out to your local government. Many fire departments are willing to dispose of your gasoline for you or suggest a location that will help you safely get rid of it. Fire departments can also offer suggestions regarding the safe storage and transport of old gasoline. Many automotive shops are willing to take in used, hazardous auto fluids. Some of them only accept oil or transmission fluids, whereas others are willing to take pretty much anything, including gas. Call around to see which shops in your areas are willing to help you. Be aware that these shops will usually dispose of your gas for free without requiring you to pay a fee or make a purchase. It’s illegal in most places to dump gas in a way that endangers public health. Gas that goes into storm drains, for example, can potentially contaminate water sources used by humans and wildlife. If you don’t have time to properly dispose of gas, it’s better to simply leave it at your home (in safe containers) until you are ready to do it right. The penalty for illegally disposing of gas can be steep, including jail time or hefty fines.
