Fat (oil)

Can I recycle it?

Fat (oil) is not collected as part of your recycling collection. Please do not pour it down the drain.

You can seal your oil in a suitable container and place in your general waste collection or you can take up to 5 litres of cooking oil to most Household Waste and Recycling Centres.
