• collect brake fluid in a separate, marked, closed container

• determine by testing whether your brake fluid is hazardous, and manage it accordingly
  
• check with your used oil hauler to see if mixing brake fluid with used oil is a problem.

• spray brake cleaner around brake fluid
  
• pour brake fluid down any drain or on the ground

Normally brake fluid is not hazardous. However, it can become hazardous when contaminated with brake cleaner from a spray can.

For more information concerning the proper handling of brake fluid, contact the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Solid and Hazardous Waste (http://www.dep.state.fl.us/waste/categories/shw/default.htm) or the Florida Center for Solid and Hazardous Waste Management (http://floridacenter.org).
