The Three P's

Remember the 3 P's: Pee, Poop and Paper - Toilet

Only 3 things can go into the toilet Pee, Poo and Toilet Paper.

Please do not flush disinfectant wipes or paper towels down the toilet. Even wipes labeled "flushable" can clog pipes. Wipes and paper towels can cause sewage back-ups, overflows and spills which are a public health risk, cause expensive property damage and threatens our environment. 

This Video shows what happens when non-flushable items (wipes, dental-floss, plastic bags, popsicle sticks, string/rope) go down the toilet.

Remember: Products like Disinfectant wipes cause major issues throughout the process at the sewer plant.
