Protect your home’s pipes and prevent sewer backups and plumbing emergencies . Never flush so - called “flushable” wipes . They fail to disintegrate once they enter the wastewater collection and treatment systems .
   Unlike toilet paper , which quickly breaks down , wipes can get caught up in sewer lift stations and at the entry point of the treatment facility .
   Watch a video of a lift station pump clogged with wipes .
    
   It’s not only flushable wipes that cause problems . There are the same issues associated with flushing paper towels , baby wipes , plastic bags , dental floss and anything else down the toilet that isn’t from the body or isn’t regular toilet paper .
   Please dispose of “flushable” wipes or any of these items in the TRASH , not the toilet .
   Questions? Contact the City of Melbourne ' s ECO Division: ( 321 ) 608 - 5080 .
