Having to dispose of the oil etc.

I change the oil and filters in my 3 vehicles, a Camry, Silverado and Kawasaki Nomad motorcycle. It's not really all that hard to do, but I do need a floor jack for the Toyota since it sits so low to the ground.

As for disposing of the oil, there is a service station with a great couple mechanics between the owner and his helper and he lets me put my oil in his big in-ground tank. Depending on how oil prices are, he sometimes gets paid by the company to remove his old oil and sometimes he has to pay.

I'll dispose of my peanut oil from frying turkeys and all my motor oil at his place.
