And i typically put old oil and other similar liquids in a plastic juice container or similar, and periodically drop them off at my favorite Advanced Auto Parts store, where they dispose of used automotive liquids, for free, and (presumably) properly.

Does your auto parts store accept mixed fluids such as oil mixed with gasoline or antifreeze?

Asking because I've never seen one which does. In fact, the Advanced by me has a sign stating oil only and they make you sign your name.

Sincerely curious because I wrench my own vehicles and currently have OMS, drained motor oil, differential gear oil and brake fluid to be disposed. The OMS and brake fluid need to go to Cobb County landfill and it is a pain in the rear end to drive down there, wait with all the trucks, etc.

It would be a huge time saver if I could find a place which takes it all or takes it mixed.
