So... What are you supposed to do with oil if not pouring it down the drain?
My city actually has us pouring our oil in the compost bins. But in ye olde days, my parents would collect all the oil in the big yogurt containers/milk jugs and then throw it in the trash.
This should only be done for vegetable based oils.
Well yes, I'm not throwing motor oil in my compost am I?
I was referring to seed-based oils.
It should go without saying that motor oil is also inappropriate, yes
I should have specified: my municipality lets us throw any cooking oil out into our compost, and we have special containers in our compost bins specifically for cooking oils. So I'm assuming they get rid of it some way that isn't actually in the compost.
Ah I thought you meant for composting at home. My Mum only ever let us put vegetable oil in the compost, and even then only small amounts.
