Don't pour oil and tissue paper down the drain!

Update date: April 24, 2017

Do not pour oil or tissue paper into the sewer.

If oil, garbage, tissue paper, etc. are flushed down the drain, the drain pipes will become clogged, making the kitchen, toilet, and bathroom unusable, and causing foul odors.

  • Don't flush used oil, mayonnaise, etc., but soak it up with newspaper and dispose of it as ``burnable garbage.''
  • Wipe off any oil or mayonnaise on the dishes before washing them.
  • Use a drain bag in the sink's drain triangle to prevent garbage from going down the drain.
  • Please do not flush anything other than toilet paper as this may cause clogging.
