Never pour fats, oils and grease down the drain
Cooking a holiday feast? Remember to safely dispose of leftover fats, oils and grease – do not pour these substances down the sink or toilet!
Fats, oils and grease – such as butter, olive oil, gravy and meat fat – can clog pipes if they are poured down the drain. This can lead to sewer backups, which can cause flooding in your and your neighbours’ homes and possible environmental concerns.
