"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.

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. 

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.

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

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.
