I would look for a local auto repair shop that has a waste oil furnace.

Some of the full synthetic motor oils will kill a waste oil furnace because, they are built to take the extra heat. I gave a drum of 0w10, from a pro operation, to a neighbor and it clogged up the preheater, of his waste oil furnace. He wasn't amused but, it didn't occur to either of us, that it may not burn.

Is there a rail road museum within a reasonable distance from you? They sometimes need it for fuel in various items they sometimes have. Maybe they would want it.
