Here at RW Cleaning Services, we've always believed in treating our customers the way we would like to be treated with the upmost respect. Were a local company with flexibility that corporate companies cannot compete with due to their high overhead rates.

We specialize in Estate Clean Ups and residential junk removal as well. Before you go with anyone else give us a call and let us give you an estimate, we're positive you wont be disappointed! PLEASE NOTE: WE DO NOT perform the following services: Tree removal, landscaping brush & yard-way debris clean up.

Because Harlan's Hauling is a small locally owned business we are willing to take on jobs that our competitors would not ordinarily do such as pool removal or help hauling some round bales. Bottom line is if you need some hard working guys to show up and get the job done for a reasonable price you have come to the right place. Give us a call and lets work out the details.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

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.

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. 

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.

Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a local plumber for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit.
