I just recycle...

I burn the shit out of it and then add new oil and then repeat this process over and over...

I do mine every 2500 to 3000 miles, do the filter twice a year unless it's been run harder then usual.

every 2500-3000 miles with Royal Purple 10w30 and an OEM filter and crush washer

FYI guys: Hondas use one-time use crush washers on teh drain plugs, that shit is supposed to be replaced every time you take the drain plug out. don't be a tight ass, they cost like $0.27 at the dealer iirc(and they ask you if you want one if/when you buy a filter), or you can buy them in bulk online for a discount, just look around.
This post comes with a guarantee: I guarantee that I don't care what you think about it.
