"Adam was very responsive and provided a quote right away. He and his team worked quickly to remove post-moving trash and cardboard from our basement, and event swept up the basement when everything was out. I definitely recommend American Junk Removal and would use them again if they needs arises."

"The service was fast. The person who helped me went above and beyond the call of duty. This company really helped our family. We are new to Connecticut and was faced with lots of debris that the garbage company would not take. They came in gathered it up and hauled it away. The service was fast. The price was right. I will hire them again!"

"Quote was reasonable especially considering the amount of rubbish hauled away. Arrived the day he promised and worked right through to complete the job. Took a LOT of stress away too as I'm not really in shape for heavier yard work anymore and was quite overwhelmed. Very happy!"

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. 

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. 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.

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’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

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.
