Draining Coolant all over the damn floor!

[wrldky]

Besides using your entire garage floor as a "suitable" container for draining the coolant has any one else come up with a better way?
I used the method illustrated in the manual and it seems like you would need a 4 x 4 three gallon pan.

i use a little handheld, manual suction pump. suck as much as you can out of the overflow tank and the radiator, then start disconnecting hoses. takes longer, but i have dumped and cleaned up too much coolant on the garage floor to worry about the extra time.

I went to walmart and bought a tupperware 24x36x18 moving/storage bin and popped the
bottom hose off. the container caught pretty much all the A/F, had i positioned it properly under the radiator it would have caught all of it. after I emptied and washwd out the container i put all my extra a/f brake fluids ets in it
