"We had a very messy moving situation and Al's went above and beyond our expectations. They professionally removed all the big furniture items (tables, beds, sofas, etc.) and even helped to clear random junk from the house and load a dumpster. All team members were courteous, clean and professional. Al's really helped us out of a jam and even worked on a Sunday! I would definitely use Al's again.

"I had a long distance move from Miami to Orlando and Moving APT did a phenomenal job. I opted in for the full packing service so they literally packed EVERYTHING, disassembled, loaded it, drove it, then unloaded and reassembled it at my new home. I did not have to move a single item aside from my own car. The crew was extremely helpful, professional and punctual and they had extremely competitive pricing. 5 star experience"

Small jobs welcome

"Jake and his team helped us with a massive junk removal after an estate sale on a large property that also involved hoarding. There was an entire home that needed to be cleared out as well as outbuildings. We were so overwhelmed with how much needed to leave the property before the home and property sale, but Jake and his team did an incredible and timely job clearing and hauling everything out that we needed, even things that were heavy and dirty like old rugs, broken furniture, and heaps of bins full of debris outdoors. Ready movers really helped with their personal touch, hiring a family business with attentive service, experience, no unkind judgement of the hoarding situation, and friendly attitudes really made this entire process smooth and stress free for our family. We would deffinitely use Ready Movers again for our junk removal needs and hauling. Thank you Jake!!!"

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

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. 

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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.
