How do I dispose of used cooking grease or oil?

The City of Plant City (City) has a Grease Management Program.  This program helps reduce the amount of grease which is improperly disposed into the wastewater collection system.  Improperly disposed of grease can form blockages in you plumbing system at home and in the City's wastewater collection system.  Using hot water or soap to chase grease down the drain will only allow it to begin clumping and solidifying a little farther down the line. Avoid grease-related problems in you plumbing...wipe out pots and pans before washing. 

Collected grease and cooking oil, and even motor oil, can be brought to the City's Public Used Oil Collection Site at the corner of Plant and Victoria Streets.  Open 24 hours and day...7 days a week!
