I bought a house. Included was about 50 gallons of waste oil, 5

I took the oil to the box store that sells auto parts. Have to
have a receipt that says you bought 5 gal. of oil THERE in order to
turn in the 5 gal. of used oil. Called JiffyLube. No can do. Called the
landfill. They have an "amnesty" day ONCE A YEAR where
they will take anything no questions asked. The next one is this
spring.


I put the oil in a milk jug labled "old oil" and put it out next to
the recycling bin on the appropriate day, and they take it away. Or,
take it to the transfer center and dump it into the tank there.


Apparently, you do not live in my hood. Leave a milk jug labeled
"old oil" next to the recycling bin, and you will return to find same.

The next amnesty day is in October.


That's the advantage of living somewhere with a good liberal government. They
figue out how to solve these problems.
