"In preparation for listing my mother's house for sale, I took the day off from work, thinking I'd get a couple of estimates and have to come back to the house to supervise. Travis and his team arrived on time (well, a little later than expected, but they called to let me know about the delay), with his truck and crew. A little over two hours later, the truck was mostly full and they'd agreed to take 3 cubic yards of brick from the property and dispose of it the following morning. Working with Travis and his crew was terrific. They were professional and thorough. I do wish I'd looked at a couple of corners more closely and asked them to take out a few things I missed when I walked them through, but I will be hiring them again after the house is sold and was very happy with our first round of junk removal."

"Warren was very communicative via phone of explaining the process and fee of removing/hauling my piano from my home. Warren and his crew came in a timely fashion and completed the removal of the piano quickly and professionally. They were very courteous and safe through out the entire removal process. Respectful of home and property too. I definitely recommend Warren Junk Removal for any of the services that it provides. I was very satisfied from start to finish."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

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. 

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

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.

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.

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.
