Gun safes, hot tub, jewerly, machine, hoisting, & Very heavy Movers.

"I wish I had seen these other reviews before hiring these scam artists. Got scammed by the rude owner/operator, Paul. His crew damaged my home and the item they tried to move, Paul has failed to provide proof of license or insurance, and now Paul has ghosted me. I arranged to have a large fridge relocated within my home. Paul gladly took the job and expressed no concerns about the project. The quote was high but seemed reasonable for a skilled, careful crew. The three guys that showed up were amateurs and stank of weed. I should have canceled right there. These clowns struggled with the move and ended up damaging the fridge in multiple places and left deep scrapes in my wood floors. The cherry on top is that Paul has the gall to tell me the damage was already there, that it was an impossible job (but he gladly took it anyway), and that his crew took pictures to document it beforehand. I'm still waiting on seeing these mythical pictures or any offer of compensation."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

Many homeowners wonder if a garbage disposal is necessary with a dishwasher. After all, many dishwashers are powerful enough to handle bits of food with no issues.  

Still, your dishwasher should not act as a replacement for a disposal. Subjecting your dishwasher to continuous leftovers could lead to major clogs. If you don’t want a garbage disposal in your kitchen, simply scrape away any extra food into your trash can or compost pile.

Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a local plumber for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit.
