Do you need a garbage disposal for a dishwasher?

• <div><p>Many homeowners wonder<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garbage-disposal-necessary-dishwasher.htm"> if a garbage disposal is necessary with a dishwasher</a>. After all, many dishwashers are powerful enough to handle bits of food with no issues. </p><p>Still, your dishwasher should not act as a replacement for a disposal. Subjecting your dishwasher to continuous leftovers could lead to major clogs. If you don’t want a garbage disposal in your kitchen, simply scrape away any extra food into your trash can or compost pile.</p></div>

Q: Will any size garbage disposal fit my sink?

• <div><p>While the part of the garbage disposal that attaches to the sink is universal, not every single disposal will work in every sink cabinet. A larger disposal may be too big to fit in a compact space, for example. If the pipes under your sink are arranged in an unusual way, it may be difficult to put in a bigger disposal, even if there technically is enough space.</p></div>

Q: What tool is used to reset a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you&rsquo;ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.</p></div>

Q: Is soil bad for garbage disposal?

• <div><p>Soil is just one of the items you <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-not-put-down-garbage-disposal.htm">shouldn't put down a garbage disposal</a>. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.</p></div>

Q: Will unplugging my garbage disposal reset it?

• <div><p>While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it&rsquo;s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it&rsquo;s working about 10 minutes later.</p></div>

Oh my goodness, David is the best. Him and his crew came in removed the hugest old trees. You can't tell the were even here in my yard. As a matter of fact my yard was cleaner when they left. If there were more stars 🌟 I'd click on all of them. Very reasonably rates. Give David a call.

I contacted them to remove poison ivy that was choking out a very big, old tree. They were able to chop it at the ground and remove up to 30 feet of poison ivy. It was a lot! It took them less than an hour and they did a great job!
