"Excellent job cutting, clearing and hauling off some terribly overgrown bushes/branches from backyard. Hard working Elliots for sure. They kept at it in the rain and also between the rain till it was done. Excellent clean up afterwards which is rare. Friendly, polite and professional. They can use me as a reference anytime. Great job and thank you."

"Hiring Hunter with Hometown Haulers was the best decision we made to help with an extremely difficult and stressful situation. He is a great communicator and prompt responder. He showed up when he said he would, which is a rarity these days. He showed nothing but kindness and professionalism. If you’re looking for a dumpster rental/junk hauling, do yourself a favor and contact Hunter at Hometown Haulers!"

"Great work! I had a nightmare of an overgrown yard and they cleared all the brush, took down vines, and even took out some small trees/bushes. All done in 2 days and the price was better than fair. Also prompt and courteous customer service. Highly recommend!"

Garbage Collection 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. 

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

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.

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.
