"Miller and his colleagues were able to do a lot of things quickly. Along with everything else, they also grabbed some old furniture that I needed help moving to the curb. They took several cares to make sure nothing was damaged during the move, including wrapping the furniture, turning off all the lights, and packaging the picture frames."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Jones and Crew, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, the entire experience was seamless and stress-free. From the initial consultation, their customer service was outstanding. They took the time to understand my specific needs and provided a detailed, transparent quote. There were no hidden fees or surprises, which I greatly appreciated. On the moving day, the crew arrived right on time and immediately got to work. They were professional, efficient, and treated all of my belongings with the utmost care. It was clear that they were experienced and well-trained, handling even the most fragile items with precision and attention. What truly set Jones and Crew apart was their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was packed securely, transported safely, and unloaded in perfect condition. They even helped with the assembly of some of my furniture and made sure everything was placed exactly where I wanted it in my new home. Moving can be a daunting and stressful process, but Jones and Crew made it feel effortless. Their exceptional service, professionalism, and friendly demeanor turned a typically overwhelming experience into a positive and enjoyable one. If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and efficient moving company, look no further than Jones and Crew. They truly exceeded my expectations in every way. Thank you for making my move so smooth and stress-free!"

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

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.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.
