"We needed to have a large two sink cement basin in our basement removed. Two young gentlemen came in and removed it themselves. Needless to say, the sink weighed 250-300 lbs! It was a struggle, but they did it. I will be calling them back if we have something we can't do, but they can. Highly recommend this business."

"A++ It is not often that you can describe a business as heroic. My 80 year old dad lived in his home for nearly all his life. I finally convinced him to move South. I had his belongings packed up and moved. But, there was a lot of stuff left over. That's where Tyrone Moving came in. When everyone else told me that they could do the in two weeks, Tyrone Moving got started just about the same day I called him. They worked night and day to have the house cleaned out. They even swept up and cleaned as they went along! They took photos and a movie. They asked me what else they could do to help me. Heroic? Yes. They arrived as soon as they could, they worked night and day until the job was done. They stayed under my budget. When someone is there when you need them and they go all out for you, I call that heroic. I gave them six stars. Thank you, Tyrone Moving. You are the Pros."

"overall my experience with Pack’ N’ Move was a 10/10. Thaj and the crew were so helpful and flexible when it came to working around my schedule. When handling my items they were fast efficient and careful with each and every item. They were very respectful of my belongings and guided me through everything they were doing the entire move. I would hire them again and i would recommend them to anyone in need of moving help! Thank you Thaj and crew!"

Garbage Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.

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.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good.
