Certain items should never be put down the drains or flushed in the toilet. Placing these items down the drain or flushing them in the toilet can cause your pipes to back up or cause issues at the sewer plant, potentially causing expensive repairs and/or maintenance, which could ultimately be reflected in your quarterly bill rate. The following items should never be put down the drains or flushed down the toilet:
- Diapers and baby wipes, even those labeled “flushable”
- Tampons and sanitary pads, personal care wipes
