For the drain container....buy one of the plastic ones at the parts stores or discount chains...the ones with the built in screen so you can just unscrew the drain plug and let it drop onto the screen and not into the dirty oil. Ive never needed a filter wrench..do this : take an old bicycle inner tube and cut a length of about 12 inches or so...insert one end into the other to form a circle to fit over the filter. This way you have superior grip and dont need room for the leverage handle of the wrench, no skinned knuckles. Also buy or scrounge around and find a large sealed plastic container ( 5 gallon ) with a screw top to store your waste oil in, instead of pouring it back into the small bottle one by one. Then when it fills up take the whole 5 gallons to your local recycler. Any shop that does oil changes is required by law to accept it..at least here in N.Y. ...free of charge.
