i did a coolant flush when i first got the car 2 years ago this month buuuuuut it was done through jiffy lube so i dont know what kind of coolant they used. Also that was roughly 50-60k miles ago and I plan on doing a flush this winter myself with the real deal from toyota.

Take the old coolant back to Jiffy Lube. ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Local laws are different. In Colorado, any store that sells coolant, motor oil, etc. must accept them for recycling. Though the most common excuse is "our tank is full." So just put the coolant in a container that you don't need back, and leave it with them and walk out.

Or look up free recycling in your city/county. Most cities and counties would do this so people don't pour toxic waste down the storm drain. My county does free hazmat recycling twice a year.
When I can't wait, I just put the fluid in milk jugs and drop them off at the local CheckerAuto store. Walk away before the clerk can lie to me that their tank is full.
