My DH has been given three large drums of engine oil (!)

Can anyone advise whether it's perfectly safe to store such a substance
near residences for a long period? Obviously we won't be using it all up
in a hurry and I'm worried about it sparking or vapourising or doing
whatever it is engine oil might do.

TIA,

Could be risky--what's your address so I can come and pick it up and store
it at my place
