"I filled out a quote form and got a call within minutes. Over the phone they said they had some guys in the area that just finished a job, and asked if I was available for them to come take a look. I said yes, they were there within another 10 minutes. I expected them to give me a quote and then schedule another time for them to come back, but they just got straight to work immediately. They worked quickly and efficiently, and got everything I needed help with done in an hour, and for $200. Frankly, I would've gladly paid more for the turnaround speed alone. I would absolutely recommend these guys to anyone needing similar cleanup help."

"I needed bed disassembled, new bed assembled and old bed hauled away. Ancient Path and Micah called right away after project submitted in Angi. He asked a number of questions to get project details. The other suggested handymen by Angi never called. I probably should have called the other suggested handymen for more quotes. However decided Micah's quote was mostly reasonable and decided continue with them. Arrived on time. Micah and Paul quickly disassembled the old bed and removed it. Took a bit longer to assemble the new bed, but certainly way faster then I could have done it. Quiet and quick work overall. Both were professionals in appearance and their work."

"The service was phenomenal! I explained my toddler and newborn would be sharing a room and I need help organizing their new shared space. Everything was organized, labeled, and color coordinated beautifully! The system put in place made it easy to find things and easy to keep it up after they left. HIRE THEM IMMEDIATELY!"

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
