Post Thanksgiving Oil Recycling


How many fry their turkeys for Thanksgiving?

I'm still pretty amazed that fad is hanging on.
However, it is, so we have to figure out what to DO with all of that peanut oil that people just don't think can be used more than once.
Sad, but true.

Do you pour it down your drain, into your garbage bags, on someone else's land? Or do you save it in cans and jugs, hoping one day to get rid of it the right way?

Some towns are setting up locations for people to take all of their "dead" cooking oils.

Denver is one such town.

Post your oil on Craigs List

A biodiesel forum to offer your oils

You could even post on your local freecycle page

The main thing is, if you're not going to reuse that oil or cooking grease, don't just throw it in the landfill or down the drain. Give it another life - so to speak. It can be used to all of our benefit in the engine of someone's car or truck.
