"Was quoted $1400 to remove a good bit of bamboo. I told them I want it rooted and gone not just trimmed down to which he agreed. They were supposed to show up on a Wednesday. Never came. I even texted and got no answer. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because it had rained the night before. Had my husband called to which they said they would be out Thursday morning. They showed up Thursday at 3:30pm. Worked for about and hour and a half. At one point they sat in their truck for 30 min. I asked if they would return tomorrow cause I assume they don’t work in the dark. They said they would be back at 8am the next day. They next day they show up at 12:30pm along with the owner who I originally talked to and was quoted the price by. The owner proceeds to tell me that they can’t do the job for the quoted price, he underestimated how big of a job it was and the price was now $3200. I told them I couldn’t pay that right now so he said they would finish up the one area that they had started and remove some debris from my yard for $500. So they did so however they never uprooted the area they cut down. The owner comes to my house around 4:30 in the evening to collect the money. I told him I didn’t pay his guys cause the job wasn’t finished and the roots in that particular area weren’t removed. He then told me that wasn’t part of the price but he would come back Monday and do it for free. To no surprise he never showed up. I would not recommend these people."

"🚫 Do NOT use All My Sons Moving & Storage (Baton Rouge) 🚫 I hired them for my move on June 27, 2025. It was an absolute disaster. They promised 3 professional movers — only 2 showed up. They were 4 HOURS late with no call, no warning, and I had to help carry and disassemble my own furniture just to keep the move going. They charged me over $1,400 for 6 hours of work, and all they managed to move was a small list of items — a couch, loveseat, chair, 2 TVs, 2 beds, dresser, nightstand, washer/dryer, tool box, generator, and 2 grills. That’s it. They damaged my brand-new refrigerator and then LEFT IT IN THE GARAGE because they “didn’t know how to get it through the door.” They never packed the kitchen as promised. Worst of all, they demanded payment before unloading anything — a policy they never disclosed. Their manager, Jared Fay, made excuses and lied about the pricing. No accountability. No professionalism. I strongly recommend staying far away from this company. You’ll pay top dollar to do half the work yourself and clean up after them."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

Garbage disposals last an average of seven years but can function well past 10 years. However, as time goes on and more food is ground, the grinding plates will slowly lose their edge and need replacing. A motor likely won’t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. 

While the part of the garbage disposal that attaches to the sink is universal, not every single disposal will work in every sink cabinet. A larger disposal may be too big to fit in a compact space, for example. If the pipes under your sink are arranged in an unusual way, it may be difficult to put in a bigger disposal, even if there technically is enough space.

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.
