When it comes to disposing of engine cleaner, it's important to handle it with care as it can be hazardous to the environment. Here are a few methods to avoid sending it to the landfill responsibly:

  • Recycling: Check if your local recycling facility accepts engine cleaner. Some recycling centers have specialized programs for hazardous waste disposal. If your area has such a program, follow their guidelines on how to properly recycle the product.
  • Donation: If the engine cleaner is unopened and still in good condition, consider donating it to a local garage or mechanics shop. They may be able to use it or dispose of it safely.

It's important to note that engine cleaner is a hazardous material and should not be poured down the drain or thrown in the trash. Improper disposal can harm the environment and pose a risk to human health. Always check with your local waste management facility for proper disposal methods to ensure the safety of yourself and the environment.
