    I've got 2 boxes of random chemicals/lubes/oils/coolant etc that I want to get rid of. I also have a few random construction leftovers.

    My towns haz waste days are over till April....can anyone recommend a service that will just come pick it all up? Does that exist?

    are they moto/auto oils/chemicals/coolant?

    I used to bring them to autozone, walmart, or an auto garage that has a big barrel of it for recycling

    Try some large environmental contractors. They may offer some free services to homeowners. Clean Harbors, United Industrial Services, and Tadebe.

    For motor oil, call around and ask if any garages burn it for heat. There is a place in my town that will take any quantity of used motor oil as long as it in a container.

    We use used oil for heating our shop, that's where I take all of mine.
    As for the other chemicals, call a dumpster place they usually can take it to a specified drop center and deal with it. It isn't cheap though. If you don't have much, you should keep it until the hazmat day in your town.

    I ask my local repair shop who does my car repairs if I can put it in his drums and he never says no!
