ReSupply is a Veteran-founded organization that partners with nonprofits across the country to provide convenient, affordable, full-service donation pickups for their donors. We pick up when nonprofits can't. We offer professional junk removal and donation pickups within 24-48 hours, will pick up all items in any condition from anywhere in your home, and deliver them to a local partnered nonprofit to benefit their mission and be reused. If an item cannot be accepted at a charity, we'll take it to another, and then another. If your items are not able to be accepted by any charities near you, we'll take them to a recycling facility, ensuring you don't need to schedule a separate waste removal service. To date, because of generous donors, ReSupply has kept over 36 million pounds out of our landfills and brought over $40 million in resources to our nonprofit partners. It's giving made simple.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

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.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

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.

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.
