    That effects everyone downstream. If you must dispose of grease without a grease trap but you don’t want to deal with like a trash bag situation: pour it into a disposable container and throw it in the trash.

      If it’s something like bacon grease you can just wait for it to congeal and then scooped it into trash and wipe with a paper towel.

        I wouldn’t recommend pouring it on a lawn unless you’re handling very small amounts of near room temp grease or you know you have a lawn that has properties good for filtration. Even then I’d avoid it because dogs or animals might try to tear up the lawn.

        If you have a fenced compost pile with proper cover material it shouldn’t be a problem as long as you have enough cover material (such as straw or wood chips) to absorb the grease.
