Abstract
An apparatus to include a storage container arranged for vertical mounting to a support surface, wherein the storage container mounts an outlet conduit and valve associated therewith. The container is provided with a cavity to receive and store a fluid-receiving pan container permitting ease of disposal of waste oil from an associated vehicular oil change. Waste oil containers are thereafter positioned below the storage container conduit to receive the waste oil for subsequent recycling. A modification of the invention includes a first and second storage container mounted to opposed side walls of the primary storage container to include respective granular absorbing material and saturated oil absorbing material respectively. An underlying tray is positioned below a manifold mounted to the container conduit for permitting filling of a plurality of waste oil containers simultaneously.
