I've heard some of the big-box stores like Target recycle oil. Considering they sell automotive oil, i think they should do it.

Call your trash company and ask for a oil recycler bottle. They'll give you a 1gal container + some zip locks for the oil filter. Place it outside with your trash (NOT in the trash) and they'll deal with it for free.

put it in a gallon milk carton out next to your trash, the garbage company will take it and give you an oil recycle bottle which looks like a gallon milk carton

Kragen in Newark will recycle your oil, I've gave them all my used oil out of the Suby.
