Need fast, efficient junk pick up service? At 1-800-GOT-JUNK? we can take just about anything, as long as it's non-hazardous. This includes a variety of household and workplace junk, such as mattresses, furniture, electronics, appliances, televisions, exercise equipment, and more.

"Had an appointment on Monday for them to show between 12-2 and I waited until 3:15 before I had to call them and reschedule until next day because they did not show up within the window they gave me. Next morning I had a window from 8-10 and it was 10:30 when they finally showed up. Then the price quoted to remove an old refrigerator was crazy high but I paid it because I had to get it out. The need to be more punctual and offer better and upfront pricing. I probably wont use them again."

Greene Moving & Storage is a full-service mover providing local and long-distance moving services for household, business and institutional clients. Greene Moving & Storage company provides service to Connecticut, Maine and New York City. Customized estimates are provided for both local and long distance moves by having a professional move consultant come to your home to conduct a move inventory and create a no-obligation price quote.

"Mice! The contents of our entire home were held by Greene moving and storage. When returned to us 15 months later the result was nothing short of disgusting. Mouse droppings were found everywhere. Mouse “nests” were found in multiple locations. Acorns and other scraps found in boxes, under seat cushions, in corners of our sofas. Mouse pee staining our children’s books. Mouse droppings in our daughters’ birthday hats. The list goes on. Beyond that multiple items had water damage as if they were sitting in water for a year. Coffee tables and dining tables destroyed. The smell of mound and mildew on everything. It’s gross. I’m addition to that damage, almost every piece of furniture was damaged with dings, scrapes, or chunks missing. We requested that Patrick Greene pay for the damages but he offered a fraction of the cost of the damages. Stay away from Greene moving and storage if you care about your belongings."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement. 

Garbage disposals last an average of seven years but can function well past 10 years. However, as time goes on and more food is ground, the grinding plates will slowly lose their edge and need replacing. A motor likely won’t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. 

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.

No, you don’t need a garbage disposal for a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without a garbage disposal. However, the two appliances pair well and are often installed together. It is rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn’t have a garbage disposal, but that doesn’t mean it's not possible. Each appliance serves its own purpose.
