How do i scrap a push lawns mower

The drainplug on most mowers is the lowest point. Some yards I really don't get a threaded hole is no different than a drill hole.

most push mowers you gotta tilt to drain the oil

I have a lawnmower with oil in it that needs draining. I've never done this before, but imagine I will tilt the pushmower over, and let the oil drain into a filter and then into a milk jug. I hope it doesn't make a huge mess. I think I might need to find some kind of plastic tarp to do this on, or onto some old clothes? I don't want to create environmental waste.
