Drain Smart
Down the Drain
Everything that you put down the drains in your home ends up in your sanitary sewer system. Fats, oils and grease (FOG), non-dispersive materials (e.g., diapers and wipes) and solid food waste can block sewer pipes, causing serious maintenance problems for both the City and private property owners. Eliminate backups and costly maintenance on your home’s sewage system by learning how to #DrainSmart.
Kitchen Disposal
Fats, oils and grease can clog your sanitary sewer systems which is why this waste should stay out of your drains. Instead, dump your oils and grease into a can or container. Once it cools completely, dispose of it in your compost or waste bin. Kitty litter, baking soda and sand can help speed up the process of solidification for cooking grease.
Garbage Disposal
Food waste adds an unnecessary amount of solid material to your septic system. Composting is a sustainable alternative to scraping food scraps into the garbage disposal. Catch smaller scraps from your plate with baskets or strainers in the sink drain.
Dublin residents are encouraged to utilize the City’s 24/7 compost drop-off, located at the City of Dublin Service Center (6555 Shier Rings Road).
Bathroom Disposal
Non-dispersive materials are items that do not break down correctly when drained into our sewer systems. Over time, these cause blockages in your sewage pipes and septic systems, causing costly repairs. When in doubt, #FlushOnlyToiletPaper!
DO NOT Flush:
- Baby and “Flushable” Wipes
- Feminine Hygiene Products
- Paper Towels
- Tissues
- Hair
- Latex
- Cleaning Wipes
