Can the Grease
 
Follow these easy steps to prevent sewage back-ups and overflows :
  • Never pour kitchen greases or oils down the drain, even if you think you are “washing it down” with hot water.

  • Pour cooled grease into a can (a soup can works great) and throw in the trash.

  • Scrape grease and food scraps into the trash.

  • Put baskets/strainers in sinks to catch food scraps. Toss scraps on a compost heap, or into the trash.

For more information on what you can do to protect your home and environment from sewage back-ups and overflows, ask WSSC to send a speaker to your association meeting or classroom.

To request a WSSC presentation, free of charge, send an email to communications@wsscwater.com, or call 301-206-8100. You can also fax a Request For WSSC Speaker to 301-206-7029

Requests should be submitted 3 weeks in advance of the event.
