Nitrile gloves are your friend!
Some oil filters you let drain for a little bit before removing. My frontier even has a little drain channel so I can drain it into the drain pan with the filter loose. Then I take it off. There’s a lot less mess than if I just rip it off fast! Not sure it that applies for you or not!
I’m not sure what the rules of your disposal site are, but I use a 3 gallon (I think) waste oil container that I take into O’reilly Auto when it’s full. I just put it on some old cardboard or something during transport to keep it from getting oil on other stuff.
For tools you can clean them with pretty much any degreaser from brake cleaner to dish soap. I don’t recommend the brake clean lol. For the most part I have dedicated oil change tools since all I need is a 14mm and a 15mm wrench to do all 3 of my vehicles.

Get good enough and wear a pair of disposable gloves. After some practice you don’t get oil on anything
