It’s the time of year for family and friends to come together and enjoy a delicious meal. After all that meal planning and prepping, the last thing anyone wants is a messy, costly sewer backup—a guaranteed way to ruin the holiday cheer.
To help prevent backups, properly dispose of FOG with these four easy steps:
• Can It - Pour solidified fats and grease into a sturdy container and place it in your garbage.
• Scrape It - Before washing, scrape out fats, oils, and grease from pots and pans into your garbage.
• Trash It - Put fatty and greasy food scraps in the garbage.
• Recycle It - Place cooled cooking oil back into the original container and make an appointment to have it picked up through the City of Folsom Door-2-Door Residential Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program.
