Where to Dispose of Fluids?

[Sylvan]

I was wondering if anyone has figured out where to take various automotive fluids for disposal / recycling. I do a lot of DIY stuff in my garage and I have fluids. Perhaps we can get a list going of what shops accept certain fluids. This might be helpful to other DIY-ers. In my garage I have:

• Motor oil (no problem, AutoZone takes this and even pays you $.10 per quart that you bring in)
• Manual transmission fluid - same as motor oil I'm assuming?
• Power steering fluid - I haven't collected any of this yet
• Brake fluid - I have a couple of gallons sitting around from track day prep I need to get rid of
• Antifreeze - I have a couple of large containers full, maybe 8 gallons or so to dispose
• Anything else I missed?

I just pour mine down the sewer late at night.

The local Kragen Auto Parts store in town takes the stuff for free as long as its in containers made specifically for holding used oil and similar fluids.

Awesome!
I made an appointment for this Saturday, I'm going to drop off all my old antifreeze, brake fluid, and a couple of oil filters to the country hazardous waste management.
