But keeping the environment in mind, it is better to do it at home. The good thing is that you can pour the immersion water into pots. Know here how to immerse at home
Why immersion is done

How to immerse clay Ganesha
To immerse the clay Ganpati, take a bucket keeping in mind the size of the Ganpati. Then pour enough water in the bucket so that the Ganpati can be immersed. You can decorate it with flowers or floating diyas. After the immersion of Bappa, the idol will dissolve completely within 24 hours. Ganpati made of alum can also be immersed in this way.
