"We recently did some spring cleaning throughout our entire house and used J&B solutions to haul away all our old junk. They responded very quickly when I inquired about a quote for their services and the quote I received was very reasonable for the amount of stuff I needed hauled away. These guys were very professional and efficient from start to finish. They dropped off the trailer when they said they would and we’re even understanding when I needed a little bit more time to fill up the hauler. Overall it was a pleasure working with this company and we will definitely be using them again when we need another junk or demo removal!"

"It went great was kept in to loop during the work process. They did a fantastic job on both exterior and interior walls. Installed both the wall scones above the new sink. Painted around the sink. Clean up was OK but all old materials were stacked. I would rehire Mike and his crew again"

"In a perfect world the other guys might work, but in reality you need professionals with building expertise, problem solving skills, creativity, and the strength to do the impossible. My washer and drier didn’t fit, my couch never did get in through the front door, and my bunk beds had a ton of hardware and parts with no instructions- Heroic Movers figured it all out, which included removing a door, light, and wall trim. Save yourself stress and headache and hire them."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

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. 

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.
