"They were great. We started with spoiled meat removal from old freezer, and went to junk removal from an attic and basement. It was a large job in an area of former rodent infestation. They were professional and prompt. They kept me informed every step of the way on progress. And any costs as the number of dumpster needed increased. Would hire them again in a minute."

"Excellent service. Very easy to book an appointment, Joe dropped the dumpster off at the exact date and time and picked it up exactly when I wanted. The dumpster was in new condition and easy to open and close the back door. I would absolutely use this dumpster service again."

"The two young men were highly professional and got the job done, even though I didnt think they could because of the weight involved. They cleaned up and got a heavy, heavy wood stove out of my garage and into their truck, just the two of them. They did everything possible to accommodate me and I was very pleased when they left--with my cast iron wood stove in tow."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

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.

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.

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.

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.
