Wellington pump stations increasingly blocked by rubbish - 32 tonnes each week
Wellingtonians are flushing thirty-two tonnes of tampons, nappies and wet wipes each week!!
These items cause blockages and damage to our wastewater network, and often have to be cleared by hand.
Remember to only flush the 3Ps! Poo, Pee and (toilet) Paper 💩🚽🧻
