How do y'all dispose of y'all used frying oil? I usually jug it up, it's getting to a point now where I need to get rid of some. I use to just take it to a fast food joint and use their waste oil bin. If anyone has any use for some let me know.

How do y'all dispose of y'all used frying oil? I usually jug it up, it's getting to a point now where I need to get rid of some. I use to just take it to a fast food joint and use their waste oil bin. If anyone has any use for some let me know.
Here are some of the things I used to do with my old oil.
1) Pour a 1/4 cup on my dog's dry food a couple of times a week. She loved it and it kept her coat nice and shiny.
2) Gave it to a buddy who filtered and processed it for his diesel pickup.
3) Pour it on a brush pile prior to setting the pile on fire. It helps the fire burn hotter and is a lot cleaner and safer than diesel or tires.
My dog died, my buddy totaled out his truck and I no longer burn brush piles, so I don't need it.
Take it to the OB community center or use it for baiting up hogs.
I was taught a trick many years ago that solved the used frying oil question. If the cooking oil is filtered as soon as it starts to cool, it can be re-used indefinetly. Food particles decay and turn oil rancid. Use one or two paint filters to pour the oil through into a clean glass container, and store out of direct light. It works! I only use this for my fish oil. tho it should work for most cooking oil. My fish oil is peanut oil. Hope this helps.
PNG---Maybe I should get it from you to use with that hog trap. Sounds like a good idea to use it for that. Mix it with corn to keep the deer from eating it.
Bodebum, you know if it works with vegetable oil? I've never heard of that, pretty neat if it works. DRH, before your dog died was it running around the yard squatting every 2-3 seconds? I may have messed up the mixture! Haha!
Mr.George,
I'll quit poisoning my dogs and save it for some hogs. If the trap doesn't catch them the trail should be easy to follow.
Thanks for the comments!
Daphne water system had collection stations positioned around spanish,fort daphne and fairhope area to keep people from putting it in the sewer systems
Yea, PNG, I was told by a chemist that loves to cook that filtering oil was essential to mantaining clean flavor. I use peanut oil for my fish oil because it doesn't smoke on high heat, but it isn't different from vegatable oil. And paint filters are cheap, so it makes it worthwile.
I did the burning brush thing with it and agree. That stuff burned as good as diesel without all the black smelly smoke.
