Baby wipes
Bandages
Cleaning wipes
Cigarettes, cigars
Colostomy bags
Combs, brushes or razors
Condoms & other contraceptives
Cotton balls or swabs

The sewage system is also NOT the place for Household Hazardous Waste. The Municipal Landfill now has a depot where residents can properly dispose of Household Hazardous Waste materials
