Q: Can glass go in the garbage disposal?

• <div><p>Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can&rsquo;t access the disposal safely, call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/garbage-disposal-repair/">garbage disposal repair pro</a>.</p></div>

Q: What is the average life span of a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. </p></div>

Q: Why is my garbage disposal not draining?

• <div><p>Your garbage disposal is not draining because it might have a clog due to food waste, a foreign object, grease, oil, fat, or it may have a broken motor. When water doesn't flush out of the disposal, that's a key sign that your disposal has a clog or needs repair. </p></div>

Q: How do you remove a garbage disposal mounting bracket?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to repair or replace a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>In some cases, it&rsquo;s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you&rsquo;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&rsquo;s likely better to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-s-it-cost-replace-garbage-disposal.htm">pay for a new garbage disposal</a> rather than sink money into repairs.</p></div>
