See if your local municipality has a hazardous materials collection day.  My
local government hosts one in the Spring each year, only once a year though.
They take anything!  You do have to be honest with the labels though, but
they'll take it if it is in a reasonably secure container.

My normal oil / coolant (but not mixed) gets dropped off at designated
recyling places the remainder of the year.
