North Texas Holiday Grease Roundup
The City of Lewisville is participating in the 12th annual North Texas Holiday Grease Roundup from Nov. 1 through Jan. 31. Lewisville residents can bring their used holiday cooking oil and grease to the Residential Convenience Center, 330 Jones Street, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Due to road construction, the Residential Convenience Center on Jones Street currently can only be accessed from Kealy Street, not from Mill Street.
Thanksgiving's fried turkeys, buttery foods, and gravy can be hard on pipes and sewer systems. When fats, oils, and grease are washed down the drain, they stick to the inside of pipes, hardening and building up until they cause clogs and sewer backups. This can cause sewage to overflow into homes, streets, and local waterways. Whether the repairs are in a home or in the street, it can be costly and inconvenient.
The collection not only protects pipes but also diverts valuable resources from being wasted in landfills. The used cooking oil and grease collected during this event will be used to create biodiesel or turned into biogas for energy production.

Participating in the Grease Roundup supports the "Sustainability" Big Move in the Lewisville 2025 vision plan. The full plan can be viewed online at cityoflewisville.com/lewisville2025.
