What you flush - matters.

The City of Moose Jaw is reminding us that the only material that should be flushed down the toilet is toilet paper.  Other items, like wet wipes and paper towels, should be thrown in the garbage.

"Even if the package says 'flushable wipes', those wipes do not sufficiently break down in wastewater and could get stuck to your home's plumbing system or clog pipes that lead to the City of Moose Jaw Wastewater Treatment Plant," explained Darrin Stephanson, Manager of Utilities.

Paper towels, tissues, napkins, and disposable wipes are among items that can clog the lines.
