The Public Works Department would like to remind everyone that it is essential you properly dispose of fats, oils, and grease. Help prevent sewer blockages and sewage spills from being released into the environment by putting these contents in the trash, not the drain.
The safest way to discard used cooking grease in the trash is to let the grease cool, pour the cooled grease into a disposable container, place the container in a sealed plastic bag, and dispose of the bagged container in your regular trash service.
Remember you can report a stormwater issue to the Cottonwood Public Works Department by calling (928) 340-2772 or emailing stormwater@cottonwoodaz.gov
