We didn’t start Junk by Johnson because garages are messy. We started it because we know how much better life feels when your home finally gives you room to breathe.\n\nLike many families, we’ve seen how quickly a garage can fill with boxes, old furniture, seasonal items, and things you keep meaning to organize. Eventually, a space meant to serve your family becomes a space you avoid.\n\nWe believed local families deserved an affordable, dependable way to reclaim that space—without judgment, pressure, or overpriced service.\n\nJunk by Johnson is a local, family-run company specializing in garage cleanouts, organization, and final cleanup. We treat every home with the same care and respect we would expect for our own family.\n\nAs we grow, we’re offering competitive introductory pricing while we earn the trust of our community—one clean garage and one satisfied neighbor at a time.\n\nSend us your ZIP code and a few photos for a fast quote.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

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 proper care and maintenance, 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.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement. 

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

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.
