"Itâ s easy to write a two thumbs up review for excellence. Chaos Cleanup Crew Junk Removal heard about my Winter collection of household boxes and bagged trash piled up in my garage and texted me and asked me to call. It was that simple. Owner, Bill Hoxworth, came on time, and he and his handsome son, worked quickly and efficiently and cleared the place in under 20 minutes. I had fielded several quotes which were all over the spectrum and was happy to work with Mr. Hoxworth because he asked me to film the area so he could see what was needed. His quote was more than reasonable and came in at a fraction of all the rest who wanted me to estimate square footage of items to be hauled to fit their truck. (Please) Soft spoken, considerate, respectful, on time, more than reasonable pricing and family owned and operated. What a business! Do yourself a favor and contact Chaos Cleanup Crew Junk Removal and tell them Colette sent you. You can thank me later. Colette"

"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."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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. 

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.
