A lot of Whole Foods stores also offer oil recycling! Maybe other health food grocery stores might as well.

Use paper towel wipe as much out pan as you can then wash☺

You can't do that where I live. Our trash go to a recycling center and they will not accept cooking oil. If you put it in the trash like that, when they crush the trash the oil runs out the bottom of the compactor.

Thank you. Im not sure if I like the idea of putting the bottle in the trash either, which presumably ends up on landfill. Our earth, what have we all contributed to, its sad 😪. In the UK they have recycling centres where you can take bottles of oil and pour it into a large container rather than put it in the trash, but what they then do with the oil in the large container.. I don't know!

I myself wouldn't put the oil back on range though. Accidental fire with kids around.

Large ziplock bags also work for disposing oil
