I keep a 20L drum for old oil, that drain neck is handy for pouring into the drum, it can drip afterwards though, so needs stuffing with a rag when done

Just open it over the street drain (outside the neighbours house of course).

Simple, no mess, no disposal issues!  ;D

If it's stuck, force it.  If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway........
