With over a decade and a half of experience in junk removal and hauling, my team and I are well-equipped to handle a variety of tasks.\n\nWe operate more than five trucks, five 40-foot gooseneck trailers (capable of hauling loads up to 15,000 lbs), and a 26-foot enclosed trailer designed to protect valuables from environmental debris.\n\nOur services offer quick, affordable junk removal for both residential and commercial clients. Whether it's a single-item pickup or a comprehensive property cleanout, our dedicated team is prepared to handle your unwanted items, ensuring they are either donated, recycled, or disposed of correctly.\n\nFrom humble beginnings as a one-truck side hustle to a thriving multi-truck operation, we've learned that timeliness and delivering honest, reliable service are the cornerstone of success.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job. 

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.

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.
