Thanks. I had planned on immediately taking them for recycling but I may just put the oil back in the original containers then recycle. Didn't know about breaking down.

My ‘01 Tundra with the 4.7 iForce engine has 381K on her with original motor and drivetrain, I know as I bought it new from the dealer. I have been running Mobil 1 5W30 with Toyota oil filers since new. Does not leak a drop. My change intervals are always between 3 and 5K. Mobil 1 is solid oil, Toyota makes incredible engines!

I have the same pan posted above to use when actually changing the oil. Once it's done I throw a funnel on and put oil in these. I have 2 of them now so I don't have to go recycle as frequently.

FYI, The Advance Auto Parts near me allow you to recycle your oil there, they have huge containers in the back of the store if you come in with a container like above!
Thanks for the info.

Nope, they are just Impact Air wrench happy !
I use clothes wash liquid soap containers about 2 gallon size .. has a big hole and the small hole.. very strong these never leaked. using water or milk type plastic containers will over time leak.
also I did one time mixed some antifreeze into a distilled plastic water container .. 60% anti freeze and 40% distilled water so I could top off my vehicles. well after several months it leaked ...
Similarly, I use one of these along with the jug you provided a link to so I can transport oil in either container (I occasionally change oil in multiple vehicles at the same time). I just make sure I wrap a paper towel around the spout cap with a rubber band, as the oil will slosh into the spout during transport and may leak.
Thanks, I will start saving those for next time. Noted.

Not in synthetic that i'm aware of. There is nothing wrong with using LS gear oil in a non LS diff though. Just don't use it anywhere there are brass parts as LS additive eats them up. One of the reasons it doesn't belongs in a lot of transfer cases and manual transmissions.

if you somewhere somehow for some reason work in the restaurant industry or know of a cousin, friend, in-law, person that works in the restaurant industry then you should ask them to save one of these for you..
these guys change the fryer oils and these just wind up in the trash.. ive kept a couple of these for years and they never broke down..
milk jugs are a bad idea..

Besides the LS additive that likes to eat up brass. I'm not 100% sure but I do believe our cases have brass bushings in them.
Will the milk jugs work for 2 hours or do this disintegrate fast? I plan on changing on at a time and immediately taking it for disposal, about 4 miles away.if you somewhere somehow for some reason work in the restaurant industry or know of a cousin, friend, in-law, person that works in the restaurant industry then you should ask them to save one of these for you..

Yeah it takes months for a milk jug to break down.
This link even recommends them. I do not.

As we use detergent bottles I will save these to reuse. I just don't have any right now.

Why not just dump the old oil in the bottles the new oil came in?
From summit racing site, delvec has limited slip additive? What is the difference between this and LS version? They are the same price per quart on this site.
