Holiday Events
Join the City of Southlake Public Works in their 4th annual Holiday Grease Roundup. Residents will have the opportunity to come and donate their used cooking oil and grease at the Public Works Operations Center located at 1950 East Continental Boulevard for the chance to pick up a free swag bag during operating hours. A designated collection station will be available 24/7 from November 14 until January 9, where donations can be dropped off. Motor oil and other automotive fluids will not be accepted.
When fats, oils, and grease (commonly referred to as ‘FOG’) are washed down the drain, they have the potential to create significant blockages that can lead to overflows occurring in your home and even in your streets. These overflows can be extremely costly to both you and the community, while also causing harm to our environment. If you have left over grease and oil from cooking this holiday season, be sure to recycle it during our Holiday Grease Roundup! Check out this video for instructions on how to best collect your grease and oil and get it ready for recycling. Free collection containers will be available for pick-up at the collection station, as well.
Residents who choose to participate will be available to pick up a free swag filed with Southlake goodies and an assortment of tools to help you keep your kitchen FOG-free! Only one swag bag will be given per household, regardless of the donation amount or quantity of donation.

More information on other participating cities and drop-off locations is available online.
