I'm moving and I have to remove the oil stains from my driveway and garage. How do I get old oil stains out?

pour simple green straight on the stains. scrub with a stiff brush and hose off.

Simple green stinks in my opinion, but it is supposed to be safe.

Seconding the Simple Green idea. GL.

If Simple Green doesn't work, you could use TSP. It's not great for the environment, but it would work. You can get it at paint stores. There are instructions on the side of the box specifically for removing grease stains from concrete. We use it to clean lead-painted windows, and it really does do an amazing job. And it's completely scent-free.
