When disposing of Gas in waste oil, you must let your carrier know about it.   The oil is not hazardous materials, but the gasoline is.   They can carry a limited amount of gas and not care.  At some point, it matters.  I was told that they could take 5 gal from me on any given trip as long as the driver was informed and no one else has gas already in the truck.

If you live in the south and have fire ant mounds, it's an alternative spot for gas.  Soak, then match.   This seems less cruel if you've ever had both of your legs covered with fire ants and then an ant general blows a whistle and they all start biting at the same time.   You'll strip naked where you stand, or while running in circles screaming.  From then on, these guys are forever evil-incarnate.   🤬

I called my wast oil company for a pick of water diesel and gas mix. They made me fill out forms cause I was not set up for fuels. Yet my pick up guy alway uses a sniffer to make sure we don’t have fuel in the oil. So on pickup day he bust out the sniffer and of course he’s a little skeptical of one of my barrels but takes the oil. But can’t take any fuel this time. So I still have 30 gallons and I guess I have to wait till I get more oil again. 
 

p.s. all the ant hills around the shop have been eradicated already
