Source: EDCONovember 22, 2019 (San Diego) -- Kitchen fat, oil and grease (FOG) that’s left over from daily cooking, or after deep frying a Thanksgiving turkey, can be recycled! EDCO has a free, safe and environmentally friendly option for disposing of household FOG.
Residents are asked to simply collect used discarded FOG in a leak-proof container and drop it off free of charge at EDCO’s conveniently located Buyback Center. The FOG will then ultimately be processed, filtered and converted into biofuel by a third-party processor.
It is important that participants do not mix FOG with any other oils, such as motor oil or gear oil, that inhibit the process of converting the FOG into biofuel.
Facilities are located at:
EDCO Station Buyback Center
Tuesday-Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Saturday 7:00 a.m. to 3 p.m. (closed on Thanksgiving Day)
