Used Antifreeze
Disposal Services in Midland-Odessa

Used Antifreeze Disposal & Recycling Services

Serving the Odessa‑Midland area from our local, family‑owned operation, Rogue Waste Recovery makes compliant coolant handling straightforward—from pickup to proper recycling—so you stay focused on operations. When your team drains coolant from vehicles, generators, or industrial chillers, you’re handling a regulated waste stream that must be managed responsibly. While used coolant can be harmful to the environment if mishandled, in our program it is not handled as a “hazmat” shipment.

We reclaim both ethylene‑glycol and propylene‑glycol solutions and route them for responsible processing, reducing environmental impact and helping you stay aligned with federal and state requirements.

Why Proper Antifreeze Disposal Matters

Antifreeze contains additives that, if released, can impact waterways and soil. Managing this material correctly protects your site, community, and brand. Federal rules (e.g., EPA) and state oversight (TCEQ) require used coolant to be stored, transported, and recycled or treated in approved systems.

Key Risks of Improper Coolant Handling

  • Environmental impact — Ethylene glycol is toxic to wildlife and pets if released.
  • Regulatory exposure — EPA/TCEQ enforcement actions can be costly.
  • Workplace risks — Slips and skin/eye contact hazards if spills aren’t contained.
  • Operational slowdowns — Improper storage complicates logistics and audits.

Accepted Coolants & Oil-Based Fluids

Rogue Waste Recovery focuses on oil‑derived waste streams. We accept:
  • Spent ethylene‑glycol antifreeze
  • Spent propylene‑glycol antifreeze (including RV and food‑grade blends)
  • Mixed coolant/water solutions
  • Lab and industrial chiller coolants
  • Glycol‑based heat‑transfer fluids
  • Coolant captured during radiator flushes

Our Closed-Loop Coolant Recycling Process

Disposal doesn’t have to mean waste. Our approach keeps usable glycol in circulation while minimizing impact:
  1. Collection & Segregation — Each pickup is labeled and logged to prevent cross‑contamination.
  2. Transport under EPA/TCEQ/DOT IDs — Cradle‑to‑grave tracking under TCEQ# A85929 • EPA# TXR000042945 • USDOT# 1967388.
  3. Filtration & Distillation — Solids and contaminants are removed; clear glycol distillate is recovered.
  4. Additive Re‑balancing — Inhibitors and stabilizers are blended to reach OEM‑compatible specs.
  5. Return to Market — Recovered glycol is used as base stock for new coolant or heat‑transfer fluids.
Every pickup is paired with the documentation you need for audits and internal reporting.

Flexible Service Options & Scheduling

Whether you generate a few gallons a month or large volumes, we have a program to fit:
  • On‑Call Pickups — Ideal for shops and dealerships. Call when your drum is full; our average service time is 48 hours from your call (business days).
  • Scheduled Route Service — Recurring visits for plants, fleets, and facilities that prefer a set cadence.
  • Bulk Vacuum Extraction — High‑volume removal for major change‑outs.
You’ll always reach an in‑house representative during business hours (Mon–Fri, 7:00–5:00) for fast scheduling.

Compliance & Documentation

Staying audit‑ready is easier with clear paperwork:
  • Manifests/Receipts — Signed at pickup; we provide all documentation after service (no customer portal required).
  • Certificates of Recycling — Issued after processing to validate reclamation.
  • Operating IDs (Quick Reference) — TCEQ# A85929 • EPA# TXR000042945 • USDOT# 1967388.
Our fleet is GPS‑tracked for internal dispatching and safety to keep routes efficient and reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I mix used oil with spent antifreeze in the same container?

No. Mixing waste streams complicates recycling and can trigger reclassification. Keep fluids separate and properly labeled.

No. Store used coolant in a sealed, labeled drum and keep it closed until pickup.
