The holidays are a time for food, family, and fun. The aromas of gravy, turkey, and bacon may come to mind.

It’s important to remember that any fats, oils, and grease (FOG) that travels down the drain can block your pipes and may result in messy and costly sewage backups.

Remember to:

  • Cool it: in a disposable can or container.
  • Scrape it: into a certified, compostable bag or paper bag.
  • Compost it: place the rolled up or tied up bag in your green cart.

Smaller amounts of FOG can be wiped with a paper towel and placed in your green cart. Learn more at calgary.ca/protectyourpipes.
