Pouring grease, oil or fat down the drain? OUCH! It can block our sewer lines, causing wastewater to back up. And that can hurt our drinking water at its source. It can harm the environment and your property, too. Wastewater overflow is costly to clean up, which could also hurt our committed efforts to keep your rates down. That's why at PWC, we urge you to follow these guidelines … so you won't have a pain in the drain.
• Pour grease, oil or fat (let it cool if it's hot) into a disposable container and put it in the trash.
• Wipe grease from pans with a paper towel before you wash them.
• Never put meat scraps down the drain.
• Compost vegetable scraps or put them in the trash – instead of throwing them down the drain.
• Don't put other solid objects down the drain or flush them down the toilet.
For more information, see the Environmental section of our website.
Stop. Think. Prevent Overflow.
