Prevent Sewer Overflows!

Do not dispose paper towels, diapers, medications, disposable mops, other solid objects or pour grease down sinks or toilets.

Pour cooled grease into disposable containers or directly into the garbage if it has hardened.  Use a paper towel to wipe away any leftover oil or grease on pots or pans before washing them.  Grease solidifies when cool and will harden in the sewer line.

Dispose of diapers, plastics, disposable mops and wipes, facial tissue and other solid objects into the trash.  Do not flush any of these down the drain!

 Prevenga Derrames De Aguas Negras!

No disponga de pañales, toallas de papel, trapeadores desechables, medicamentos, o algún otro objeto solido al igual que la grasa en su fregadero o baño.

Vacíe la grasa en contenedores o directamente en la basura si ha endurecido. Use una toalla de papel para limpiar el resto del aceité o la grasa en su olla o cazuela antes de lavarla. La grasa se solidifica cuando se enfría y se endurece en la tubería de drenaje.

Disponga de pañales, plásticos, trapeadores desechables, toallitas, pañuelos de papel y otros objetos sólidos en la basura. No arroje algunas de estas por el drenaje.
