To dispose of left-over petroleum products, you could just dump 'em down
the
storm sewer. They will lubricate the walls and help prevent flooding.


That's about as bad as dumping them down the sanitary sewer (and the two
join in some locations)...

Better than that would be to simply dump in a corner of the yard somewhere
than putting them directly into the water system, small amounts though
they be...


Larger towns have hazardous waste disposal sites. Not sure what is, is not
covered, but things like acids, herbicides/insecticides are def'ly covered.
And of course most garages take used oil, at least around here.

And old diesel chariot would proly be the best, uh, vehicle for disposal. I
was more thinking along the lines of recovering the *energy value* of this
stuff..... every mickle makes a muckle.... every fickle....
