Don’t Pour Oil Down the Drain. Pouring oil down the drain or toilet causes clogs in your home plumbing system and contributes to larger clogs in the municipal lines that can cause thousands of dollars’ worth of damage.

Oil and grease may be liquid when hot but will cool in your pipes, congealing and gathering other oil particles in the pipes. As the grease collection grows, it will prevent water from flowing through and causing it to back up into your kitchen and bathroom.

The right way to dispose of grease is simple; throw it in your trash can. Follow these steps to avoid pouring hot grease directly in your garbage:

1) Let the oil or grease cool and solidify.
2) Once cool and solid, scrape the grease into a container that can be thrown away.
3) When your container is full, place it in a plastic bag to prevent leakage and then throw it in the garbage.
4) Once you’re rid of the majority of the grease, use a paper towel to wipe down all pots, pans and dishes that came into contact with the oil before rinsing them in the sink. Even small amounts of leftover grease are dangerous to your plumbing because it will build up over time.

If unopened it is likely just fine. Use it, or if you don’t want to, donate it to a food bank. I frequently volunteer at Atlanta Community food bank , and things like expired canned goods and cooking oil are perfectly fine as long as they are originally sealed and in good condition. Read about sell-by dates, these are not absolute and are used for stock rotation and control. Local food banks: Find Food Now
