"I was very impressed with Faith Junk Removal Services. They reached out to me quickly and provided an excellent quote. They came out promptly, removed the hot tub efficiently, and cleaned up thoroughly—leaving everything better than it was before. Their customer service was outstanding, and the entire experience was smooth and professional. Highly recommended!"

"I couldn't have been more pleased.  The curb appeal has been restored to the front of the house.  The back yard is refreshed and ready for spring.  The crew dragged quite a lot of yard debris to the curb and managed to do so without leaving a trace.  An overgrown and mostly bare evergreen shrub was cut own to the ground and treated to keep it from growing back.  An overgrown Holly was pruned back and revealed Azaleas I didn't know were there.  It seems every leaf and straw of pine was removed from the grass!  The yard looks better than it ever has.  I should ignore it more often!  Well worth the (reasonable) price.  And the crew cleaned up after themselves as well.  Great service! Oh - and the crew made sure the one spot where my dogs can escape was adequately barricaded before they left. I even received an email asking me to check the spot just to be sure. Hard workers AND dog lovers!

Garbage Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

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.

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.
