Default Oil change question

What oil change places use re-used oil? I have to do a quickie some time later in the week and want to take it somewhere that uses fresh oil, not some re-used filtered shit.

Ive never heard of any place reusing old oil in customers cars. If someone is thats some shady crap.

Most major chains should be ok to go to.

OR...put your man pants on and do it yourself.

Yeah. It takes 2 minutes. Do it.
It'll take more time to wait at the shop.

I think the OP meant using synthetic oil over using regular oil.

Not really recycled oil exactly.

But doing it your self is the fastest, cheapest way.

No, he meant what he said. In the 90's there was a huge problem with shops being shady about oil quality and origin.

Re-used oil is mostly bulk oil ask for bottled oil only.
