It is best to recycle antifreeze, but if for some reason you can not
find a place at which to do this remember that antifreeze IS
biodegradable. I used to work at an auto parts store and we had a book
listing all the ways to handle the products we sold. It is fine to pour
it on the ground just make SURE that it does not leave a puddle as it
can be deadly if ingested and many animals like the taste.
On another note you may be wondering what the MOST difficult product to
dispose of was. Armour All. I think it was suposed to be sent back to the
manufacturer or something. Oddly nobody ever dropped a bottle of Armour
All. Oil additives and everything else, yes; Armour All no.
