What is the appropriate way to dispose of used cooking oil?

I know some people reuse it, but I am talking about when it is time to throw it out.What is the appropriate way to dispose of used cooking oil?
I know a few ways you can do that. 1) you can dig a hole in your backyard and put the oil in the hole and cover it with dirt. 2) you can use that oil and poor some over your dogs food, did you know oil is good for dogs because it makes their fur shiney. 3)you can also put the oil in a bag and throw it in your trash can but make sure you put it in a bag that doesn't link, if oil links in your trash it will cause magets to come in your trash can. And what ever you do do not poor the oil the oil down your drain.What is the appropriate way to dispose of used cooking oil?
Do not just throw it down the sink, even if it's vegetable oil that is liquid at room temperature. Sewage treatment plants can't neutralize it %26amp; it just gets flushed into the ocean.





Place it inside a container,metal being better than plastic, a biodegradible container being best of all). Try to fill the container as much as possible. Then throw it out with the rest of the trash. It is not a great solution but I don't think there is a better alternative.
I know that some countries recycle used cooking oil. Here in the Us several parts to recycle the used oil. Trash bin or drain would be the worst ideas. If you don't have any recycling going on yet You can either dispose it at a the closest curbside or ask a local restaurant if you can use their grease bin most large restaurants do dispose their used oil bin which are later recycled.





Try to recycle yourself for deep frying for instant oil can be reused.
Never never pour it into your sink or you can get sewage backup which fccin nasty (my friend's neighbor got it). so what you do is keep an old jar and/or can to pour the oil in. Once it get old it will harden, then you can throw it away. Or just put it in the fridge to let it harden. Simple as that! (:
dont put it down the drain, it will clog your drain up. Instead, you can put it in the trash, or just dump it outside in your yard.
Poor the oil into a can, like an old coffee can, let it sit. It will become almost solid, and then you can dispose of it. It's the best way I've found. Just do not put it in your sink.
I usually pour it into a very thick newspaper. The other thing to do is find a vacant place or somewhere close that is covered in ground vines.
Pour it into a disposable container and freeze it. On trash night put it out with the rest of the garbage. No spills
use a funnel and fill up a 2 liter bottle or anything and throw it out.
mix with sand throw in to the earth.
light it on fire and throw it over the castle walls, duh.
think only one option and try it
drink it and see how long it takes for you to die of heart attack.
