If you Google "Waste Oil Collection your city, state"
there are a number of places that will come to you.

The problem with the place he bought it from like wally world or autozone is they don't come to your house and get it.

You can burn it in that 12 valve, it will easily handle up to a 33% oil to diesel mix.

if used oil is in larger quantities (drums) it's probably considered Haz-mat and you may have to pay a lot to get it pumped. They will think it's from commercial use.

I had a place pick up for free if it was over 55 gallons of oil. Water is $1 per gallon though.

You've got 75 gallons,right? Go everyday for a month= two gal./day. Problem solved. My local Kragen will take my five gallon container anytime. Every company's different I guess.

Look for your local Safety Kleen or US Filter. they both collect the stuff, for a fee.
Or try your local auto shops, i know a lot of them run waste oil burners for heat.
Might be able to work some kind of deal with them.

I used the Irvine site for pesticides and old paint. You can take 15 gallons of oil per day if it is not commercial. I had a shop once, and the oil collection used to be free, your best bet is to take 3 5 gallon pales at a time there until it is all gone. You could go to Kragen too. If you buy it from them as stated above, they usually have a waste disposal drum as well.

Good luck.

Auto Zone and Wal-Mart will take 5 gallons at a time. I keep mine in a 5 gal gas can till it is full and just go by Wal-mart most of the time.
