"I hired this contractor for demo and this was an absolutely horrible experience. It says they have been in service for 16 years. It is more like hired 16 year olds to do the job. I seen it for myself. I paid for a professional demolition people not children. They told me that the screws and nails were not part of demolition. They were trying to charge me extra for that. they stated they would remove all the nails and screws in the wood. When I checked on their work, they took a sawzall to cut them off. Instead of removing them with a hammer like they should have. Now it is gonna cost me more money to fix that problem. They also charge me for an extra dumpster for my debris. They bought the smallest dumpster possible. Meanwhile, they were dumping the debris into the abandoned house next-door. They knocked out my window, and with the doors made a bridge to do the dumping. After all was said and done. There was still debris in my grass, on the sidewalk and in the street. "

Then he blocked my phone number! W**? So he is going to get his wish! Do not hire! I thought by hiring a veteran/ firefighter owned company I was getting someone with INTEGRITY! He has zero!!!"

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.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.
