"Danny Deconstruction Junk Removal services were superb! The two drivers were not only timely, but they were also friendly, professional and efficient. I was so impressed with the time they took to carefully and safely remove our items, and they offer competitive pricing. I plan to use their services again, and will highly recommend them to our friends, family and neighbors for this and any other services they offer! Thank you Angi for sending us their contact information."

"They came out the next day to remove a shed that was destroyed by a tree in my yard. The worked quickly getting the debris broken down and out. They also removed everything from the shed, stacked it on my patio and even covered it with tarps from the shed. I really appreciate how thorough they were."

"I had around 10 cubic yards of dirt that I needed removed which was not a small task. Hiram was great, super responsive and flexible on setting up a day and time. Very well priced. He was able to get it all hauled away and even cleaned my driveway up afterwards within 24hrs of arriving. Definitely will be using them again."

"Hired this company to clean up a construction site. They were 10 minutes early, which is great also very respectable. I gave directions on what needed to be cleaned and dumped after that. I left for a meeting. Mr. Anthony advised me they should be done within four hours. I returned within three hours. Everything was done, I believe they did an excellent job and even going above standards. I was reluctant to hire them, but I’m very happy I did. Afterwards I asked can they go pick up kitchen cabinets and advise them they have to be very delicate with moving them. When he arrived with the cabinets, it was strapped with bubble wrap and very secure. Also upon moving them in it was done with time and care. No scratches on the cabinets or my walls. I thank you guys again and will be contacting you for future business."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

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. 

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. 

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

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.
