"Doug was prompt, thorough and efficient with what we needed done. I had been collecting a bunch of stuff that needed to go to the dump and could no longer park in my garage. Thanks to Dumpster Fire, my vehicle is inside out of the snow and the stress of getting that stuff done is also gone. Would highly recommend Doug helping you with your same issues too!"

"The Dump Guy provided one of the most exceptional customer service experiences I have had in years. I scheduled via email, they answered a few questions I had, and called me the day of asking if they could arrive 2 hours early (happily!). When the two gentlemen showed up, they were friendly, personable, and willing to do whatever needed to be done. They even thanked me for getting all my junk into three piles on the lawn for them to take. I thought I had underestimated my haul and thought I would have to spend more, but they said the brush would be a little cheaper than the other stuff because it is lighter. There was a VERY large broken branch on my lawn I didn't consider having them haul, and they offered to throw it in if I wanted. When they picked up the brush and branches, they raked up everything around so it was perfect as they left. Also, I had this strange, thick metal wire sticking up from my driveway, and one of the gentlemen offered to cut it off with his Sawsall so it wouldn't mess up my car. Above and beyond doesn't cover the level of service I received! No question I would hire again."

"Miller and his colleagues were able to do a lot of things quickly. Along with everything else, they also grabbed some old furniture that I needed help moving to the curb. They took several cares to make sure nothing was damaged during the move, including wrapping the furniture, turning off all the lights, and packaging the picture frames."

"I had a Groupon for 1000 sq. ft. of driveway sealing.  I have about 2000 sq. ft.  I bought the Groupon and called, and I was told it would be another $170, so I wanted to set the appointment.  It actually took a year to get done, as he had too many Groupon customers and was giving scheduling preference to his existing client base.  Once we had the appointment, they arrived on time, could not have been more pleasant, did a great job, and left the area spotless.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job. 

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

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. 

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.
