Cooking oil

Liquid oil cannot go into your food waste bin (if your council offers a food waste service). However, it can be taken to any of north London's reuse and recycling centres (opens in a new window) (RRC). Once cooled, simply collect it in a plastic or glass bottle. The oil will be converted into high quality bio-fuel for the distribution and power-generation industries. If you cannot access an RRC, cooking oil can be put in a sealed container and disposed of your general waste bin.

Please note cooking oil is not accepted at Hornsey Street Reuse and Recycle Centre's pedestrian zone. It can only be brought to the site by car or van.
