Kitchen Collection
Easy How-to
Always COOL DOWN used oil in your pan or fryer before collecting.
For very small amounts of oil, wipe up with a paper towel and throw in the green cart or trash.
For any amount of oil that can be poured out
, strain out food scraps and dispose of them in the green cart or trash.
Make sure you pour oil into a clean, non-breakable container with a tight-fitting lid, such as the original container, or an old coffee jar.
When container is full, take to a drop-off site, such as the Household Drop-off Waste Center (for hours, call (415) 330-1400) or click here for latest drop-off collection event.
Or you can visit SFGreasecycle.org regularly for details on upcoming collection events in your neighborhood.
Remember, don’t pour or rinse any fats, oils or grease down the drain.
