There are several oil-changing stations that will just recycle the oil for you. If you are doing it yourself, you can look at this website for recyle locations- http://www.recycleoil.org/.
To recycle your used oil properly, you'll either want to take it to an oil change facility that accepts oil containers or to a household waste recycling facility near you. Whichever option you choose, it's a good idea to call first to make sure that the facility will accept containers of used oil.
Most auto shops recycle their oil, and those that do DIY oil changes should recycle or dispose of their oil properly through household hazardous waste (HHW) facilities, auto shops or other collection sites.

The best answer is that you should take it to a service station that will recycle your oil. Guess I need to ask if you have ever changed oil in a car and if you are seeing something different here that is a problem. --Ken

yes, some people burn used oil as heat source.
To change oil - have ready: oil, a recycle container to drain oil into, rags, oil filter, oil plug gasket (plastic washer). Drive vehicle until completely warmed up, remove oil drain plug, drain oil into recycle container, I take off the oil filler cap for quicker drainage, remove used oil filter - oil will come out here so have recycle container ready, lube new oil filter gasket with oil and put on (follow tightening instructions on filter). When completely drained, oil the oil drain plug gasket if not squished too much, otherwise get new plug gasket. Add recommended amount of oil, replace oil filler cap, run engine for a minute, let oil settle (about 10 mins) re-check oil level and adjust as needed, check oil again later to make sure no oil loss and correct level of oil. On older vehicle stay with organic oil (not synthetic) newer vehicles may do best with a synthetic blend. QUICK SHEET: 1) Warm up vehicle 2) drain oil into recycle container 3) replace oil filter (oil gasket seat) oil will come out here too - have container ready 4) replace oil drain plug (change gasket washer if needed and lube gasket) 5) add oil, recheck level after running and letting sit for a while.
there should be a nut or bolt like figure under the car get a pan,container to hold oil and unscrew that and let it leak out then recycle the oil because you cant dump oil anywhere its illegal to do that. bowling green,kentucky

Mineral oil should be disposed of at a hazardous waste facility or through a professional hazardous waste disposal company. It should not be poured down the drain or disposed of in the regular trash as it can harm the environment.
