North Texas Holiday Grease Roundup
The City of Lewisville is participating in the 13th annual North Texas Holiday Grease Roundup through Jan. 31. Used holiday cooking oil and grease can be dropped off at the Residential Convenience Center, 330 Jones Street, any time; no appointment necessary.
Thanksgiving's fried turkeys, buttery foods, and gravy can be hard on pipes and sewer systems. When fats, oils, and grease are washed down the drain, they stick to the inside of pipes, hardening and building up until they cause clogs and sewer backups. This can cause sewage to overflow into homes, streets, and local waterways. Whether the repairs are in a home or in the street, it can be costly and inconvenient.
The collection not only protects pipes but also diverts valuable resources from being wasted in landfills.
The used cooking oil and grease collected during this event will be used to create biodiesel or turned into biogas for energy production.
