"We had 2 garage doors installed in Jan 2024. Our garage was unique but Aker got it done. Twice we’ve called about needed adjustments and they came out within 1-2 days to make it right. Their prices are competitive, their workers knowledgeable and friendly, and impeccable customer service. I RARELY give a company a 5 star rating but they totally deserve it. Many kudos to worker Rick. Great guy!"

"They do not pick up pianos unless it is under a certain weight, they won't take it down more than two steps, and it isn't wet outside. This should be advertised on their website! I chose them because I needed the piano moved along with a huge pile of other stuff. I still had them remove the other stuff, but if I had known, I would have hired somebody else instead. I felt that their TV ads are misleading that they will take anything and their written list of items they will take is also misleading as it states they will take pianos. Besides that, the guys were good that moved the junk and they moved quickly and were on time."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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. 

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.
