I’ve had a one car garage and while things were tight, changing oil was no really a problem. Many times I would park with only the nose of the car inside the garage.
For those time when it was super cold, I would park the car as close as possible to one side and jack up on the other side. Once the oil was draining, I would lower the vehicle to level it and get more oil out. I used a smaller oil drain pan for this so it wouldn’t get crushed.
Don’t these quickjacks need compressed air? If so, that’s another item that will take up space, which in a one car garage is already sparse.
