A device for facilitating the draining of residual oil or fuel remaining in an oil or fuel filter is disclosed. The device includes an outer container or bucket having an inner basket disposed at least partially therewithin. The basket has a ribbed or screened surface that holds the oil or fuel filters and allows the fuel to drain from the filter and through the ribbed or screened surface down to a bottom of the outer container. The basket may include a lower sloping surface with an opening formed therein. Oil draining from an oil furnace filter strikes the lower sloping surface and is directed to pass through the opening down to the bottom of the outer container. When the basket is entirely disposed within the outer container, a cover closes the opening at the top of the outer container to prevent spillage of any accumulated oil in the outer container therefrom during transportation of the device in a vehicle.
