"Incredibly friendly and professional. I explained in great detail what I needed, and they gave me a quote that we agreed upon. They arrived exactly when they said they'd be here, and it turned out after they started that they needed one extra load than planned. They came back and did the extra load at no extra charge to make sure they honored their quote. I was very impressed with their service and will definitely be using them again."
"I own a non profit and JunkLuggers assisted me with moving as well as recycling furniture that helped furnish our office. They were professional, relatable, and knowledgeable about the move."
"I recently worked with Ridgeview Property Services after purchasing a property where the previous owner left everything behind — personal belongings, appliances, refrigerator, trash, and even hazardous materials. The situation could have easily been overwhelming, but their team handled it professionally from start to finish.
They set clear timelines, communicated expectations upfront, and completed the clean-out exactly as promised. They removed all personal effects, appliances, toxic materials, and debris efficiently and thoroughly.
What impressed me most was their integrity — after the job was completed, they actually lowered the invoice because they felt they had over-quoted. That level of honesty is rare.
I would absolutely use Ridgeview Property Services again for future estate purchases or any major property clean-out. Highly recommend."
"I had a great experience! They came out to remove a bunch of junk and waste from my house. They made the whole process really easy and stress free. The team was friendly, professional, and worked quickly. Everything was taken care of without any hassle. I will definitely use then again. Highly recommend"
"I highly recommend Jorge and his team. I received a printed quotation and a quote for a very reasonable price. My wife even mentioned how nice the tree cleanup looked when completed. They assisted me in a big job of 3 trees being cleaned up after they were on the ground. Used a big chipper and multiple chainsaws to cut the trunks into pieces. Highly recommended. Thank you Jorge!"

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.
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.
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.
These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.
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.
