"Chris and his team did an excellent job in hauling away our yard waste. I called on a Monday and they were here on Tuesday. We HIGHLY recommend them! It was a blistering hot and humid morning and they filled a trailer that was at least 20’ long 10’ wide and 6-7’ high. GREAT GREAT JOB!"

"Blake responded very quickly to the quote request and we were able to schedule the clean out within 24 hours of posting the request. We had scheduled a time but due to a unexpected emergency needed to postpone the same day which he did without delay. We were able to meet and complete the job in a very quick and efficient manner, he went as far as to make sure everything was cleaned and completed to my satisfaction. The quote he provided did not change and we were able to make the payment on the spot without any unexpected charges or fees. Blake was very professional along with his assistant to remove all of the unwanted items from the storage bin, and he even offered to help with taking the items reserved for donation to another location. I highly recommend Pa property solutions to anyone who is looking for responsible, reasonable, and respectful business from a highly efficient professional. Below is the result of clearing out a 15-ftx20-ft storage bin left behind by relative."

"We could no longer do our own yard work. The thing I appreciated is how fast Z&W responed to our message and came and gave us an estimate of what we would be paying for the landscaping. The estimate wa reasonable. They do good work and they are easy to deal with. I also like the fact they are trustworthy and show up on time. Keep up the good work Z&W."

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.

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.

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.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. 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.

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.
