Aight im taking a bit of a road trip this friday, and Im planning on doin a little bit of maintenance “just in case” Now i know you can turn in used oil to say, advance (by law they have to take it since they sell oil), but im wondering what to do with coolant? The truck is in desperate need of a flush and fill, and i got all the tools to do it here (back flush kit, coolant system cleaning mixture, 50/50 mix) And I know its Rediculously illegal to just dump the coolant out, that and its highly poisanous to animals. So what do i do with it? ---

[quote=“01AudiS4,post:13,topic:24505"”] Can we really do that? [/quote] yes technically most shops that do fluid changes have to take all this stuff. the only reason i say leave it in the middle of the night is so you don’t get a hassle. some places will try and charge you then pocket the money. others will refuse you. most of the fluids get recycled and resold anyway. (the best place to go it the chain place close to you) shit for oil i know a LOT of shop that do oil heaters. i give my oil to them. free heat for them. ---
