3 Signs Your Garbage Disposal Needs Repairs
Garbage disposals can run into many issues over the years, and it’s vital to know the warning signs of a problem. You may need the help of a plumber if:
- Your system doesn’t grind up food: When a garbage disposal no longer breaks down food, there’s likely a major problem with the blades or electrical components.
- It makes odd sounds: The unit should make some noise when operating, but it shouldn’t sound different each time.
- Your system emits a foul odor: Bad odors from a garbage disposal are a sign that the food isn’t being processed.
Don’t try to fix a garbage disposal on your own when a team of expert plumbers can handle the job safely and properly.

What Not To Put Down Your Garbage Disposal
To get the most life out of your unit, it’s essential to only feed it materials it can handle. A few things to avoid putting down a garbage disposal include:
- Popcorn kernels: These small, solid pieces can’t be broken down by the blades in the disposal.
- Fruit skins: While the blades of a disposal can break down fruit skins and emit a nice smell, they struggle to fully break down the material.
- Paper: It can break down paper products, but the remaining paper can clog up the system and your piping.
Taking care to only put soft, not starchy, foods down your garbage disposal can lead to a longer lifespan for your system.
