"Daniel and his crew did an exceptional job for my family. My move was complicated and involved stages. Daniel’s all female packing crew was excellent. They were efficient and extremely careful. They packed fine artwork, antiques , crystal and china. Studley moving worked long hours to complete the job in a timely manner. My possessions were crated and meticulously stored in a prestine and organized storage facility. His equipment and pads were neat and clean unlike others I have moved with..... Daniel manages his team expertly and is extremely hands on. Other friends have been promised storage by movers which resulted in their items being placed in a road side unit. Mine were crated and stored in a professional manor. Daniel stuck to his up front contract unlike other movers with hidden add-on costs. This is my third move with Studley moving. He has since moved my best friend and parents which were both seemless and proficiently executed. Thank you to Daniel and his crew for making a stressful time pleasant and easy. I’m grateful."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

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.

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

Your garbage disposal is not draining because it might have a clog due to food waste, a foreign object, grease, oil, fat, or it may have a broken motor. When water doesn't flush out of the disposal, that's a key sign that your disposal has a clog or needs repair. 

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.

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.
