that's what i meant by self-containing... not sure if there's a technical name for it. the one i already had was just a pan with a little notch to make pouring "easy," yeah right. i managed to get it all into a milk jug but it was an experience i'd rather not repeat.

unfortunately the smallest one walmart had was 15 quarts... way bigger than i wanted but on the plus side i can drain my car oil in there as well and not have to worry about filling it up every oil change. less trips to the oil-recycler, more happy me
