Don’t Put These In The Drain

Plumbers will tell you to avoid putting these items down your kitchen sink drain – they’re the biggest causes of drain blockages that can cost you hundreds of dollars (or more) per professional visit to remedy: 1. Coffee grounds. Granular waste combines with other items to form a clog. 2. Grease/oils will stick to the inside of drains and pipes and can contribute to sewer overflows (yuck!) 3. Fibrous materials like onion skins or corn husks. These can get snarled in your disposal blades.
