Do garbage disposals unscrew?

• <div><p>These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garbage-disposal-repair-and-replacement.htm">when you replace your garbage disposal</a>. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.</p></div>

Will my garbage disposal impact my septic tank?

• <div><p>Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use. </p></div>

Q: What tool is used to reset a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.</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: What are the negatives of a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. </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.
