Got any auto parts stores in the area? Most will take your oil off your hands free. At my local Pep Boys, I just drop off in whatever container they're in (usually empty 1 gallon wiper fluid jugs). Auto Zone employees just point me at the oil tank in the back of the store and tell me to empty my jugs into that. Another option for you is to take the oil with you when you get the oil changed on your vehicle. I'm not sure about the law that any oil change place has to accept your used oil, but I am sure that the boys at the oil change place won't mind if a customer asks them to take care of a little used lawnmower oil.

The manual for my lawnmower says to just pour it out on the ground. As many people seem to say on the net; i'm certainly not going to tell the engineers they're wrong...

Hope you're kidding about pouring it on the ground... if not, thanks for helping to contribute to the environmental decay of our planet. Is it really difficult dropping it off at the oil change place when you take your truck in?
