in the places I've worked at so far, used brake fluid and oil and other petroleum based lubricants were dumped together in the same tank, coolant separate, unless it was oil contaminated, then it went in with the oil. That's how the oil recycling guys come and pump it out.
I just don't understand where people seem to find endless amounts of really old, large glass containers filled with hydrochloric acid. And decide that they belong with waste oil.

Now that I think about it... it makes sense now... some of those pails smelled a bit like shit or maybe sewage.
Oh well. I didn't know any better back then. If it wasn't liquid, it went straight to the garbage lol
Glad I stopped long ago doing that portion of that job, and don't work there anymore haha
