Do you need a garbage disposal for a dishwasher?

• <div><p>Many homeowners wonder<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garbage-disposal-necessary-dishwasher.htm"> if a garbage disposal is necessary with a dishwasher</a>. After all, many dishwashers are powerful enough to handle bits of food with no issues. </p><p>Still, your dishwasher should not act as a replacement for a disposal. Subjecting your dishwasher to continuous leftovers could lead to major clogs. If you don’t want a garbage disposal in your kitchen, simply scrape away any extra food into your trash can or compost pile.</p></div>

Is it worth it to fix a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/plumbers/">local plumber</a> for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit. </p></div>

How can I maximize the life span of my garbage disposal?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-keep-your-garbage-disposal-running.htm">proper care and maintenance</a>, 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.</p></div>

Q: Why should I pick a continuous-feed garbage disposal?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

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>

I love these guys! They are prompt, clean, and responsive to my needs. I have rented, in the past, a dumpster from them and plan to do so in the future.

Service was phenomenal. I thought my clutter was going to be around forever until Nate showed up. Outstanding communication, more than fair pricing, and a job well done by Nate’s Dumpster Service. Would recommend.

They rent out one recycling bin and one garbage bin both are large and have wheels. I can fit 7 kitchen bags in the canister. They come once per week around 3 am to pick up garbage and recycle. If I have a large item they will remove and bill me an extra fee.

This is a type of business that calls its customer a liar and thief. Who does that? I had a every other week pick up service with them simply because we don't produce that much garbage for every week pick up. We barely fill the trash can in two weeks. However, when they failed to pick up the...

They took all of my yard sale items, which were not with my garbage, and were all like new. They were destroyed in the truck. I had to call numerous times, and the owner was unwilling to make it right. Horrible company, and I would strongly recommend avoiding their services.
