"Had an ok experience with this moving company. Make sure you ask a lot of questions and plan to supervise/direct (which partially defeats the purpose of paying movers). The young men that came to help were extremely polite. I knew the job would be quick, I have a small one bd apartment. They were there for an hour and 20 minutes. I helped and I paid for a 3 hour minimum. With tip that was $350 When they had â finishedâ , they told me 20% of my belongings wouldnâ t fit. I knew that was incorrect because I came here in the same size container with more pieces of furniture. They left and I had to spend 2 hours unpacking and repacking the container myself in 80° and 68% humidity. Everything fit. ð The owner apologized when I told him, but I feel like I overpaid for what I received. Given they did move the items downstairs, I feel like half would have been reasonable due to the need to repack. I received an apology, but no refund. Pros: *Was able to schedule with a weekâ s notice *Polite *Quick *Generally reasonably priced (if the job had been completed ) Cons: *Was originally scheduled for Wed 6/5 but was rescheduled at 3pm on 6/4 for â bigger jobsâ . *I had to be flexible after agreeing on a date *Close supervision and direction is required. *Didnâ t listen to me when I asked them to load heavy furniture a specific way instead putting it on its side risking damage and decreasing surface area for other items *Inefficient use of space resulting in me having to repack. *Pricey for my actual experience *Not clear on how to move using shipping pods/uhaul containers *Didnâ t pack everything"

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

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.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

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. 

Regular maintenance, such as not disposing of grease or coffee grounds down the sink and routine use of strainers, can prevent clogs.
