"I am a repeat customer with NOVA Junk Removal. And once more they didn't disappoint. Norman was very prompt in providing a quote. Then I arranged a date for pick-up. Omar (who is wonderful) & 1 co-worker called ahead to provide their ETA, arrived exactly when advised, & set about trying to remove the large chair from our upstairs bedroom. I say try because it was too wide for the door to remove without damaging the paint. After trying a myriad of positions to bring it through the door without damaging the paint, it was clear that the chair "wouldn't cooperate." So with our permission, Omar broke up the chair so he & his colleague could safely remove it. This company is the one to call when the need arises!!!"

"My mother had died and I was donating all of her furniture & personal items to charity. The 2 men showed up on time and they were very respectful of my mother’s death. The job went incredibly quick. I couldn’t have asked for them to be any better at their jobs than they were. If I have another opportunity, I’d hire them again without question."
Couch removal is the number one single furniture item that we get called to take. Whether you’re looking for a new style, or moving and can’t take it with you, we will get it out.
A pile of garbage that got piled up outside the bins creating a unsightly and unsanitary environment.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

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. 

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.

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.
