Hi Robyn,
Thank you for your message – it’s great that you’ve contacted us, as this is a very common question!
If your oil heater is still in good working condition and suitable for resale, you can use Recycle Mate to find a charity shop or other nearby location accepting donations. You might also consider selling it on Gumtree or another online marketplace.
If the heater is not in good condition, many councils accept oil heaters as scrap metal for recycling. Our team has done a quick check on your behalf—please click here for a full list of scrap metal recyclers in your local area.
Please note your oil heater may need to be drained of any oil before drop-off. If you use a container to capture the oil, both the oil and the heater can be taken to a Recycle Mate nominated location for special disposal.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for getting in touch. Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.
Thanks Murphy
