Dispose of your grease safely after Thanksgiving

Dispose of your grease safely after Thanksgiving

COLUMBUS, GA - Most people at home do not produce very much used cooking fats, oils or grease. But we have found that even a little grease from the many homes in the City add up to clogged sewers in our neighborhoods.

Clogged sewers result in unsanitary back-ups, overflows onto streets, foul-smelling odors, and costly damage to the sewer infrastructure. So as residents, we are all affected. Fortunately, we can all do something about it!
