Try a farm implement dealer, a semi truck and trailer service center, a
dealer, or a quick lube. Remember, these guys get paid for their waste oil,
just like we do here at the farm. And the people that buy it from us really
don't care too much what it contains. I know ours contains diesel engine
oil, gasoline engine oil, (from both leaded and unleaded gas) hydraulic oil,
brake fluid, heavy oils, water, soap, detergents, washer fluid... just about
anything. My brother in law also drives a pickup route for one of these
companies, he goes from the quick lubes right to the airports in the area
and it all goes in the same tank. The company that he works for, filters
it, thins it with fuel oil, and sells it as a #4 furnace oil for industrial
furnaces.

If those are polypropylene milk jugs, you don't want to leave them
sitting very long. Polypropylene absorbs oil and will disintegrate if
left in contact with each other.

Good to know. I actually have no milk jugs at all, so the oil is in
plastic buckets that originally held cat litter. It hadn't occured to
me to check for oil/plastic compatibility. The next vehicle I buy will
be suitable for hauling buckets of oil to somewhere I can dispose of it.
