Every autumn Seattle Public Utilities faces a big job keeping storm drains clear – there are over 36,000 of them around the city! Remember to clear your drain only if it is safe. For safety, always rake from the sidewalk. Prevent future drainage problems by placing all debris – compostable or garbage – in the appropriate cart. If your drain is still clogged, call 206-386-1800 and let our experts take care of it.
