That must be where my dad got the idea.

From the earth(conventional anyways), to the earth.

They will be drilling in my backyard soon for my private reserve.

If you live in town you can just pour it in the storm drain.

Years ago, one of my buddies dad had finally had enough of this 55 gallon drum of used oil on his side yard, and kicked it over. Dumped 55 gallons of used oil. Over the years, it was the only spot the grew green grass in that side yard.

I was just telling a buddy this. Had a piece of plywood with a brick over the hole out back.

Most stores make it hard to recycle.

So that’s what you do with it!!!!!!!.. I just used the used oil disposal receptacal located in the storm drain

Pro Tip #2: Old Gas, just let sit in open air container and it nicely evaporates to never never land rather quickly!

Kind of like the old process for bilge cleaning was a 1/2 cup of Tide and some water in the bilge.

Scrub it, go run the the boat and pull the plug at the ramp.

Dad did this for as long as I could recall as a kid, but around all the cedar fence posts. That damned fence is probably still there 65 years later.

 

[Rotten deal]

pour it next to your fence posts. Preserves them forever.

Back in the day that's what many did. My dad use to say your simply putting the oil back in the ground where it came from...

Another pro tip: the trash trucks will take anything in a black trash bag. As long as it’s not very heavy.

So does autozone... if their tank isn't full

Or a smudge pot and burn it. I just made 23 quarts of heating oil for mine.

Jezz dude, I'm not sure ol Jeff would apricate being scrubbed down like that! But if you've done it before, I guess he's ok with it??

I use simple green a few gallons of water and dump in a bag of ice. The ice acts as a scrubber. But I do that one the way to the launch and pull the plug when I get there and let it drain before I launch.

My dad use to use all the old oil along the fence no weeds ever. I may or may not have a hole in my backyard
