"This is an amazing family business. I lost my father and I was able to have trash hauled away, donations made to a cause I really believe in, and his house listed all within a week. They were great to work with. I would highly recommend them for all of the needs that a death in the family brings. I would absolutely use them again!"

"Wow! I was so relieved Miles Dump Solutions was able to help me out on such short notice. Sometimes you don't realize how much junk you have to get rid of until you're in the middle of a project. They contacted me immediately and scheduled a pick-up time on the same day. I know that can't always happen, but that was exactly what I needed. They showed up exactly when they said they would and left everything looking tidy. The communication was wonderful - so there were no surprises with pick-up. I've done a lot of work that requires dumpsters, junk pick-up, etc. This was one of the most seamless and easiest processes ever. Lots of services require you to be there to pay them on the spot when they pick up. I was able to get on with my day and pay online. I am adding them to my contact list. I highly recommend! Thanks for making my day easier."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

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.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.
