Excell Junk Disposal company hauls away and disposes of stuff that you no longer need. Materials dear to you that you can no longer keep but don't want ending up in the dump we also take to donation centers as per your wish. We get rid of old couches, mattresses, box springs, beds, washers, dryers, tables, desks, brush, household furniture, etc. We work for individuals, households, and businesses in the twin cities. With our incredibly low rates, we take the stress from junk removal. Why spend a fortune to get rid of what you no longer need? Having worked for a junk removal company for over two years and fully understood how the junk removal/disposal service business works, I decided to organize, open, and run my own removal business and help homeowners painlessly get rid of their junk. I sat helplessly and painfully as homeowners disposed of their unwanted stuff as if they were purchasing new stuff. It pained me. We clear away the junk and not your pockets. Junk? Excell!

"They responded promptly to my initial inquiries, and arrived right on time on the day of our appointment (during the first major snowfall of the year, even) and removed the stuff I needed hauled away very efficiently. Very friendly and professional folks. Even after offering them a bit extra for hauling out some additional oversized boxes for me as well as the things we'd prearranged, I'm quite sure I couldn't have found a better price short of just doing it myself. I'd recommend them to anyone, and will certainly be calling on them again myself."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

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. 

Garbage disposals last an average of about 10 years, so it may be time for a new model if it's getting up there in age. Other signs that it's time to bring in a local garbage disposal pro include:

  • Leaks under your disposal

  • Persistent clogs

  • Lingering odors

  • Lack of power

  • Unexplained noises

Many homeowners wonder if a garbage disposal is necessary with a dishwasher. After all, many dishwashers are powerful enough to handle bits of food with no issues.  

Still, your dishwasher should not act as a replacement for a disposal. Subjecting your dishwasher to continuous leftovers could lead to major clogs. If you don’t want a garbage disposal in your kitchen, simply scrape away any extra food into your trash can or compost pile.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.
