I plan on draining my coolant through the petcock. What do I catch it in, and what do I do with it?

La Orange

You can bring it to most auto pasts stores to recycle it

sjohnson2615

Just dump it in your neighbors yard.

My trash company picks it up with a phone call. Same with oil, filters old batteries etc.

Problem with a barking dog in your neighborhood? They love it.

You might think it's funny, but you really have issues man.

Some poeple just might read this and not be very bright and kill the neighbors dog doing what you suggested. You are a sicko.

And dumping it in the ground it will get into the water table eventually --- thats why its always encougaged to take removed fulids to the auto store for recycle or even your county might have a recycle canter to drop it off for free.

I inquired at Advance Auto by me and they said they don't take it, my brother works at a Penske rental & service center, they have a recycle drum so i handed it off to him ha ha.
Call Advance or Autozone first, may save yourself a trip, good luck.

Thats right never give a dog antifreeze.

Save it for the cats

You could always put the old antifreeze into a container and put it in a trash bag with the rest of the trash.

smurfkiller

catch it in anything that will contain it

CALL your local auto parts stores or shops someone will take it and dispose of it for you.

some gas stations, some auto parts stores, some auto repair facilities and most municipal or county land fill/recycling locations take antifreeze. but, as said above, call first and ask specifically about antifreeze because some stores only take oil, and some repair shops won't take cars they're not working on. it's much easier than driving around with a couple jugs of this in your car looking for a place to do your good deed.

when you drain it, collect it in a bucket or pan like an oil drain pan (make sure whatever you collect it in doesn't have oil residue, and clean afterwards with paper towels and then wash well w. soap). then with those plastic gallon jugs from anything (detergent, water, soda 2 liters, windshield washer fluid, etc. you can even use the gallon jug the new antifreeze came in.) pour it in and make sure it's sealed tightly for the trip to the store/landfill/repair shop. I put the bottles in a milk crate in back so it can't fall over, even tho well-sealed. I also don't use those plastic jugs that have the press-on caps---they pop open!

whatever you do, don't feed it to anything (highly toxic) or let it drain out into the ground.

Correct answer...>>>>>

I'm sure it was meant as a joke but that's cold!

Larry/car

I think antifreeze manufactured today is not toxic. Be very careful with pets, they seem to be attracted to the smell. My dog even started to sniff an area where I had spilled antifreeze, the area had been wiped and the residue was dry. I chased her and cleaned the area again.

You might think it's funny, but you really have issues also.
Cats are no less a companion animal than the pet dog, and have just as much right to exist.

Some people just might read this and stupid or hateful and kill the neighbors cat doing what you suggested. You are also a sicko.

bb996+r1

I would say just pour it down the Missouri river.

LMB-Z

You people are sick, sick, sick...and don't have a clue what to do with this stuff. You collect it in an empty plastic quart container (like a soda bottle), add some Kool-Aid mix, and give it to the neighbors that you don't like.

Vette5.5

Don't know about that one, as if ethylene glycol, same stuff that's been used for year's, and considered toxic. If propylene glycol(which is rare), you can actually drink the stuff, and not a disposal problem. While I'm basically a DIY person myself, considering coolant changes are only every 5 year's or so, just let a shop handle it.

vettedoogie

I think any Wally World with a car center will take it, just like they do oil & filters. Don't quote me...call first.

obxchartercaptain

Co'mon guys.....They were only joking about giving it to dogs n cats.....NOW, if someone wanted to put it in DONUTS for the LEO's....That person would be a SICKO....
