Cooking Oil/Grease Recycling
North Charleston Sewer District recently partnered with Midlands Biofuels in an effort to escalate its “Cease the Grease” campaign – and just in time for the holidays too! Midlands Biofuels offers a proprietary grease bin design to properly and safely dispose of cooking grease.
NCSD asks its residents to join the “Cease the Grease!” campaign by disposing of cooking grease in one of these bins, available in 3 convenient North Charleston locations:
- NCSD Administrative Offices at 7225 Stall Road;
- NCFD Station 5 at 6265 Dorchester Road; and
- Felix C. Davis Community Center at 4800 Park Circle
