Antifreeze, or coolant, is used as freeze protection and as a heat-transfer medium in motor vehicles, heavy equipment, and commercial cooling systems. The most common types are made of ethylene glycol and propylene glycol and are toxic to humans and animals.

Used antifreeze may also contain levels of dissolved heavy metals that can be toxic to animal life and may contaminate soils and sediments. If glycols biodegrade in large quantities, they can deplete the levels of dissolved oxygen in surface waters, killing aquatic organisms.

WRS Environmental provides drums for antifreeze recovery. We bulk it at our facility and export it for recycling.
