"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 Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

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.
