MaxWorks Low-Profile Oil Drain Container 8.5 qt (8 L) — Slim HDPE pan with oversized handles & leak‑proof plugs

MaxWorks 50965 is a low-profile 8.5-quart oil drain container designed to slide under ATVs, tractors, lawn mowers, motorcycles and other low-clearance equipment for clean, splash-free fluid changes.

If you work on small engines or garden equipment, a compact, reliable fluid-collection tank makes routine maintenance faster and less messy. The MaxWorks 8.5 quart oil drain container combines a slim height with a wide collection area, integrated handles and multiple drain options so you can capture oil, coolant or other service fluids without spills. Built from high-density polyethylene, it resists chemicals and holds up to repeated use in a garage or on the job site.

How does the low profile help with low-clearance vehicles?

The container’s shallow height lets it slide under vehicles with limited ground clearance, so you don’t need ramps or jacks just to position the pan. Its large, flat footprint provides stable coverage beneath the drain point, reducing the chance of missing the drain opening during service. That combination saves time and minimizes drips on the floor.

• Approximate dimensions 58 cm x 33 cm x 12 cm for slim under-vehicle access
• Wide target area to catch fluid even from angled drains
• Low height eliminates frequent repositioning beneath low-clearance frames

What features make it easy to pour and transport used oil?

MaxWorks built the container with oversized carry handles and a large funnel-style reservoir, so moving and pouring used fluid is straightforward. Two wing plugs with rubber O-rings provide controlled drainage points that reduce splashing when you empty the tank. The durable polyethylene material stands up to repeated lifting and transport without cracking.

• Large, raised-lip funnel prevents overflow while filling
• Two wing-style drain plugs with O-rings for leak-free emptying
• Sturdy, oversized handles for secure carrying when full

Can I use this container for fluids other than engine oil?

Yes — the high-density polyethylene construction is compatible with engine oil, coolant and many other automotive and garden-equipment fluids. While suitable for typical maintenance liquids, always follow local regulations for storage, transport and disposal of hazardous fluids. The tank is intended for temporary storage during service and for transporting used fluid to a recycling center.

• Works with engine oil, some coolants and similar service fluids
• Not intended as permanent storage for long-term containment
• Easy to rinse and reuse between services

How durable and easy to clean is the MaxWorks oil drain container?

Constructed from high-density polyethylene, the container resists common chemicals and won’t easily deform during normal use. Smooth interior surfaces make rinsing and degreasing straightforward after each job. The robust build is designed for routine garage tasks and multiple oil changes without warping or leaks.

• High-density polyethylene resists cracking and chemical attack
• Leak-free tank design with secure wing plugs
• Smooth interior for quick rinsing and maintenance

Who is this for: The MaxWorks 50965 oil drain container is aimed at DIY mechanics, landscapers and small-fleet owners who service ATVs, motorcycles, lawn mowers, tractors and other low-clearance machines.
