The City of Sturgeon Bay will reopen its oil dump tank on Monday, December 15, following an extended closure due to contamination from water and antifreeze. The site will be open during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

City officials remind residents to only dispose of used engine or hydraulic oils in the tank. Cooking oil and other substances should not be dumped, as the facility is not designed to handle these materials.

A separate white drum has been placed next to the steps for antifreeze disposal. This drum is designated for antifreeze only, helping the city manage hazardous materials safely and efficiently.

Residents with questions about proper disposal or the reopening schedule are encouraged to contact the city’s office for guidance.

The reopening of the oil dump tank provides Sturgeon Bay residents with a safe, convenient way to dispose of automotive fluids while protecting the city’s waste management systems and the local environment.
