STOP & THINK

BEFORE YOU PUT IT DOWN THE SINK!!

Here’s a checklist for managing fat, oil and grease in your kitchen. 

Do’s

Do wipe and scrape plates, pans and utensils before washing (and put the waste into the bin).

Do collect waste oil in a suitable secure container.

Do arrange for oil to be collected by a licensed waste contractor.

 Do use strainers in sink plug holes (and empty contents into the bin). 

Do maintain Grease Traps and Enzyme Dosing equipment regularly.  

Dont’s

Do not put cooking oil, fat or grease down the sink.

 

Do not pour waste oil, fat or grease down the drain. 

 

Do not put food scrapings into the sink (place in the rubbish bin).

 

Do not sweep waste into floor drains (place rubbish in bin).

 

Do not pour boiling hot water down the sink to try to dissolve fat and grease. It does not work!
