^^^^ this.

And no, I don't use it for my daily driver. It goes in the pos lawnmower. Or the guy who calls asking for the $10 oil change and wants to reuse his filter. There are so many uses for virgin oil, it would take a thread of it's own.

Long story short, it's oil, there is only so much of it. I have no problem letting the containers sit overnight in a funnel to sell it with the rest of my waste petroleum products when I drop the pails and barrel off. Yes, I know I'm only get $6-10 out of my trip, but it's the same distance as the trip to the landfill "safe disposal site", I would rather have the beer money.

The modern oils are so light and slippery it seems if a guy waits just a few seconds the thing is pretty well drained. There isn't much more than a drop or 2 in 24 hours.
