Recycle Your Cooking Oil
This is a time of year when the use of cooking oil increases! The cooking oil you use to fry
your Holiday meal (or any meal) can be recycled, preventing dangerous and costly dumping and
turning the oil into fuel. So, please help reduce costs associated with water treatment and
clean up by visiting one of Greenville County's Residential Waste and Recycling Centers and
recycling your used cooking oil. Click here for the
location nearest you.
Recycling your used cooking oil saves tax pay dollars, keeps drinking water clean, and creates
environmentally friendly bio-fuel.

Grinding of the Greens
Greenville County is offering a convenient way to recycle your real
Christmas trees after the holidays; it’s the annual "Grinding of the Greens" event sponsored by
the Greenville County Solid Waste Division and Recycling.
Real Christmas trees are 100 percent biodegradable; thus can be ground into mulch, which will
be available, free of charge to the public at the Twin Chimneys Landfill. By recycling Christmas trees,
precious landfill space will be preserved.
