Manitoba Schedule A hazardous wastes
Oil filters after use

Manitoba Schedule A; monthly registration amount 20 L or 20 kg.

Used oil filters from engines & machinery are registered from 20 L or 20 kg a month, in Manitoba's Schedule A list.

Is Manitoba MHW2 hazardous waste?

Yes, subject to the listed Manitoba exclusions. MHW2 is Manitoba's Schedule A Provincial Waste Code for oil filters after use. It is Category 2 hazardous waste unless a specific exclusion applies.

For regulated hazardous waste, enter MHW2 in the UN Number or Provincial Waste Code field on the Manitoba movement document. Manitoba’s registration and shipment rules apply. The 3-digit provincial waste class goes in a separate field and doesn't replace that code.

What does Manitoba MHW2 cover?

MHW2 covers a discarded filter that holds or once held used oil. A filter drained for 24 hours and crushed by at least 75% is excluded.

Is a used oil filter always Manitoba MHW2?

Code	When it fits
MHW2	The discarded filter holds or held used oil and isn't drained and crushed.

Pick the code from the waste's composition, test result and source. Provincial registration and movement rules, federal cross-border controls and TDG classification are separate checks. One identifier doesn't replace them. The bilingual regulation gives 20 kg in English and 50 kg in French for the used-filter movement-document exemption, so that quantity is unsettled.
