FOG (Fat, Oil and Grease) can cause clogged sewer lines, leading to sewage overflows that contaminate our homes, streets, and creeks. Helping to prevent sewer overflows and back-ups is easy. Just follow these tips below!
- Never pour fat, oil or grease down the drain.
- Don’t put food scraps down the garbage disposal. Put them in the compost instead.
- Collect fat and grease in a compostable container and put it in your compost pail.
- Wipe greasy pots and pans with paper towels before washing, and then compost the paper towels.
- Recycle your cooking oil through Napa’s free curbside Recycle More program! Sign up here or call (707) 255-5200. Your used cooking oil will be recycled into biodiesel!
