🚽💧 THINK BEFORE YOU FLUSH!
Did you know that what goes down the toilet can have a big impact on our wastewater system?
The Town of Pilot Mountain reminds everyone that toilets are designed for just two things: human waste and toilet paper. Even products labeled “flushable” can cause problems once they enter the sewer system.
🚫 Please keep wipes, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, diapers, cotton swabs, dental floss, fats, oils, grease, and other non-flushable items out of the toilet.
These materials can contribute to clogged pipes, sewer backups, equipment problems, and costly repairs.
✅ When in doubt, throw it out—don’t flush it!
A small change at home can make a big difference in protecting our infrastructure and keeping Pilot Mountain flowing. 💙🏔️
