glitter oil doesn't wear out in normal use. If it hasn't been overheated then it can be cleaned then new detergents added and it's good as new.

Did not know Advance Auto took it. Good to know for future reference. How about large batteries (not auto related). Who takes those?

Take those to the scrap yard. You can get money out of them.

Advance auto used to take oil- no charge- just take it in and they have a big tank that they recycle oil with- that was a few years ago- I'm sure they still do it

But be advised. The storm drain idea may cost you a lot of money if caught.

I have a small oil change tub that I use to change the lawn mower oil. Where can I go to dump this properly?
