Celina is a listed partner in this season's regional Holiday Grease Roundup, with two places to leave used cooking oil, according to the program's 2026 drop-off map.

The site at 300 W. Maple St. is open 24 hours. The second, at 10165 County Road 106, is open Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Why it matters

Cooled grease hardens inside pipes and can clog home plumbing or cause sewer overflows, according to the North Central Texas Council of Governments, which runs the regional program. Collected oil is recycled into fuels such as biodiesel. Let it cool, seal it in a lidded container, and keep motor oil out of it.

The roundup runs through Jan. 31, 2027, at 68 sites across North Texas. Our Fort Worth edition has the regional overview: https://fortworthweekly.news/article/holiday-grease-roundup-is-underway-with-free-cooking-oil-drop-off-through-jan-31
