We have problem here in Portland (and likely in other cities) that when
it rains heavily the combined sewage and water cannot be processed fast
enough.  That means the brake fluid and anti-freeze (and sewage) go into
the river.  The city is spending millions trying to separate the two,
they paid me $50 a downspout to disconnect my gutters from the sewer!  I
can't think of a good reason not to take all hazardous material to your
neighborhood NAPA, AutoZone or municipal waste center for free and
proper disposal.  How many people have buried their oil changes in the
back yard saying "it gets diluted"?
