It happens.. And if you dont use a milk jug the jugs that like anti freez comes in works really good turn it side ways and cut out the top on one side... But like he said oil pans are cheap

Re: what do you use

oil pan or tupper ware container

I have like 8 containers in my garage for catching oil (all of which are full lol)

$2 tupper ware is nice compared to a $8 oil pan

And I use a 5 gallon bucket to drop my oil off
