It takes two people to pour the oil, via the spout, into 5 gal buckets. I then take the oil to a recycle drop off location. If I had a used oil furnace I would burn it.
I can buy oil for $45 a 20 litre pail, so I can do an oil change at home for $100 plus filters. More importantly, I do it, so I know it us done right. I write the date and mileage on the filters. I change my oil once a season, or at 15,000 miles. I actually got the 15,000 this year. Normally it is less than 5,000 / year.
