Attention Homeowners
Over the last 2 months we have pulled 12 plugged pumps from our lift stations. Luckily, no sewer backups have occurred due to these pumps being plugged. We are finding the plugging issues are caused by toilets being used as trash receptacles. Please remind your friends and neighbors nothing should get “flushed” that isn’t a water based or food based by-product. Toilet paper is the only exception. Some of the objects we are finding include cleaning/disinfecting towels, baby wipes and disposable toilet brushes, these items should not be flushed. If you suspect a sewer back up, or trouble with a lift station please call 911 so we can investigate.
