Our Sewer Department has been receiving an increase in sewer blockage calls. Please remember if you are experiencing a sewer issue in your home, your first call should be to your plumber. The Sewer Department is only responsible from your curb line to the main. If you have a joint sewer line with a neighbor, you should contact the other party on the line to make arrangements for repairs. Below are some tips on what not to flush down your toilet/drains to help prevent sewer issues before they begin:

Feminine Products – Tampons and other feminine hygiene products are not supposed to be flushed down the toilet.

Cooking Grease/Food – Grease should never be poured down any drain, period. It may look like a liquid that can easily be dumped down a drain, but when it cools, it will congeal and clog up your pipes. Collect your grease in a glass jar and throw it in the trash.

Baby Wipes/Wet Wipes/Cleaning Pads – These “adult baby wipes” are becoming increasingly popular nowadays. They are also increasingly causing clogs and backups in sewage pipes. If you must use these, throw them away in the trash can. Flushing wet wipes can easily turn into an expensive problem when you have to call a plumber to snake your toilet.

Dental Floss – Floss is not biodegradable and can cause serious clogs and environmental damage.

Q-tips/Cotton Balls – You might think that cotton will break down but they don’t! They will clump together, causing blockages at bends in the pipes.

Diapers – Just because there is human waste inside does not mean that they are OK to flush. Diapers are made to expand in water. In the unlikely case you actually get the diaper to flush, it will likely cause a blockage.

Pills – They have toxic effects on groundwater supplies. There are pill drop off locations in the county for more information, check out this site: https://apps.ddap.pa.gov/gethelpnow/pilldrop.aspx

Paper Towels/Tissues – If you use paper towels, throw them in the trash, not the toilet. Tissues and paper towels are not made to dissolve like toilet paper; throw them in the trash.

Cigarette Butts – Cigarettes are full of toxic chemicals that end up going straight into the groundwater supply. If you have to smoke, throw the butts away properly.
