Clean Stream Car Care Tips

If it washes off the driveway, parking lot or pavement, it goes to a storm drain.

All storm drains lead to streams, lakes or Puget Sound.

What can you do?

• Wash your car on the lawn or go to a car wash.

• Don’t wash your cleaning products into streets and drains. All soaps are harmful to aquatic life.

• Get regular tune-ups and oil changes.

• If you change your own oil, catch all the oil and recycle it.

• Fix oil leaks promptly. Use kitty litter to absorb oil leaks. Dispose of kitty litter in the garbage.

• Keep antifreeze off roads and driveways (and away from pets); drain into covered containers and take to hazardous waste disposal.
