"I worked with Nick and the team at Standard Clean Outs. Nick was friendly, professional and communicated well throughout the job. From 1st contact, he was clear and prompt with his knowledge and assessment of this huge project. He was also able to work with me closely to complete the extensive paperwork required by building management and was flexible; providing quick turn-around for the submission of required documentation. Nick showed up ON TIME for each day the 2 day job and he and his efficient team worked swiftly, tirelessly and without complaint or issues of any kind. They did not make any unnecessary noise or create any messes in the common areas of this high-rise condo. Nick took virtual payment and sent electronic receipts instantly; which helped with record-keeping. Best of all, he treated us with dignity and respect during this stressful hoarding clean up. If ever I need to deal with a situation of this again, I would call Nick in a heartbeat. I highly recommend him and I'm completely satisfied with his work."

"Warren was a gentleman. He assisted me in having to complete the difficult task of clearing my basement of old doors, drawers and many items. I had not fully completed my list sent to him but he removed things nonetheless. Thank you, Warren."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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.
