From 1998 to early 2008, the County picked up batteries every other month. Batteries are collected at the sites<br />

in 2 ½ gallon buckets or 30 gallon drums. Prior to the pick-up day, <strong>City</strong> staff calls each battery drop-<strong>of</strong>f site to<br />

see if their buckets or drums are filled. The <strong>City</strong> gives the County a list <strong>of</strong> all the sites that need their batteries<br />

picked up. The County picks them up the following week and brings them back to the YCCL for consolidation<br />

and disposal through their hazardous waste contractor. As <strong>of</strong> July 2012, Yolo County charges a $32 fee per site<br />

pick-up to cover the cost <strong>of</strong> fuel for the County vehicle and the labor costs.<br />

The battery program became so popular that bi-monthly battery pick-ups were not frequent enough. Buckets<br />

and barrels filled with batteries too quickly, sometimes as <strong>of</strong>ten as every 2-3 weeks. In 2008, the <strong>City</strong> signed a<br />

new Memorandum <strong>of</strong> Understanding (MOU) with the County and switched to monthly battery pick-ups.<br />

CalRecycle encourages the recycling <strong>of</strong> used motor oil by certifying used oil recycling collection centers<br />

throughout the state. Certified Used Oil Collection Centers (CCCs) will take used motor oil from the public and<br />

will pay 40¢ a gallon. Most centers will take up to 5 gallons at a time.<br />

Davis has six CCCs, all <strong>of</strong> which accept used motor oil and used oil filters from the public for recycling:<br />
