🚨 Confused about where to toss that leftover cooking oil? A binman on TikTok clarifies it all! 🚨
We all know the woes of leftover frying oil—sinks get clogged, and food waste bins seem like a no-go zone. But here’s the scoop: there’s a right way to get rid of it.
First things first, never pour it down the sink! You don’t want expensive plumbing bills, do you? 🛠️ But wait, food waste bins aren’t the answer either!
According to the TikTok ‘binfluencer’, The No1 Binman, the real solution is simpler: dispose of that oil in your general waste bin. But here’s a pro tip—make sure to seal it in a container you can’t recycle before tossing it in. Think jars or cartons with tight-fitting lids. This prevents messy spills when the bag might split. 📦
Got gallons of it? If you’re dealing with a commercial-sized stash, it’s time to ring up the council or a designated waste collector.
Feeling creative? Zero Waste Scotland suggests reusing it! Try coating your garden shed or fence—it’s safe for nature and won’t mess up the colours. Or turn chicken or bacon fat into a DIY bird treat. Mix it up with seeds, let it set, and hang it for the feathered friends to enjoy! 🐦
Save headaches and do your bit for the environment—your binman and garden birds will thank you! 💚
