Daphne Utilities Oil Recycling Program

Lake Forest residents are encouraged to participate in the oil recycling program established by Daphne Utilities. Used cooking oil should always be disposed of properly. DO NOT POUR THE COOKING OIL DOWN THE DRAIN. Even if the oil is poured slowly into the drain with hot water, this practice will eventually cause problems with your plumbing and the City’s sewer system as a whole. Once the oil has cooled, it can be poured into a free Daphne Utilities recycling jug (or other container you may have) and dropped off at any of our recycling centers around the City. Used cooking oil is also biodegradable so it can be composted with other food scraps. You can drop off your containers of used cooking oil at the following locations: Daphne Utilities Main Office, Lake Forest Shell Station, Daphne Walmart, Short Stop Service Station, Spanish Fort BP Station, Malbis Shell Station, Lake Forest Apartments, Sunbelt Apartments, East Bay Apartments, Pelican Bay Apartments, Old Trail Baptist Church. For more information about the Daphne Utilities Oil Recycling Program contact Daphne Utilities at 626-2628
