good idea for containing mess from engine teardown

I have 2 catch pans, one for coolant only since I will filter and reuse it whenever possible.
The other pan is for everything else. If it does get a little cleaning ( rare ) its done with brakeclean into the same funnel and jug.
I haul away my own trash and the place has a receiever for about everything, Motor oil with trans fluid, dirt, etc. in the mix. Another spot for empty oil bottles, a place for cooking oils, a place for batteries, clear glass, green glass, steel cans, alum' cans, on and on.
In fact I'm going there later this morning. Right now there are 2 blue Maxwell House coffee containers by my back door filled with deep fryer grease.
2 !?!? yeah the wife collects that under the kitchen sink and I forget it unless she sits it out in my path LOL
Anyway..
I'll leave those upside down on the catch basin/receiver. Sometime later the attendant there will toss those in plastics recycle.
Most Americans including my neighbors who use the same facility I do who recycle nothing. Everything they take there goes into the same gerenal garbage. My parents in their 70s recycle nothing. Recycling wasn't taught to their generation. Add all those seniors to all those who are in too big a hurry to bother or simply dont care and you have many more that dont than those who do.
I see recycling sort of like seatbelts. There will be have to be fines paid to force the average American to wise up and play right.
Actually there are munisipalities where someone does sort through your garbage and they can fine you for improper disposal. Got a grand ?
