Sorry for the late reply.

You could remove thermostat and lower radiator hose. Use garden hose in thermostat cavity, turn on the water. I don't know how much pressure you would get from garden hose?

Some antifreeze is poison, don't let pets or anything drink it. Dispose of old antifreeze properly.

Just to add, your local auto stores probably has a flush additive. I'm sure it comes with instructions.
