"I needed someone to haul off ALOT of junk from my Dadâ s home and I needed someone to do it last minute. They called me and I sent them a few pics and they gave me a very fair price. They arrived at the time they said they would be there and got right to work. They were curteous hard workers and helped me load the trailers and even helped sort some of the stuff that I needed to keep. I would 100% recommend them for any job. Thank you!"

"Lawton, the owner, was kind and accommodating. I spoke with him directly. He was able to schedule, move, and haul away old furniture (twin bed, sofa, end tables) quickly (within a day). Price was very reasonable and competitive! Did not have to deal with dispatcher or wait for other companies to provide over priced estimates. Also, didn’t have to adjust my schedule to work within a large company’s time frame. I definitely recommend Pristine Cleans! I will call them if I need any more haul away or cleaning services!"

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

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.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.
