Charlotte-Area Garbage Disposal Installations and Replacements

They say you don’t know what you have until it’s gone—and in our experience, that’s certainly true with garbage disposals. When you’re washing dishes or cleaning up after a meal, it’s so easy to throw the scraps down the drain, flip on the garbage disposal, and let it do its thing. But when your disposal isn’t working or you don’t have one at all, cleaning up becomes a lot more frustrating and time-consuming.

That’s where we come in! Whether you’re replacing an old disposal or installing one for the first time, Morris-Jenkins makes the process simple and stress-free. Contact us today for garbage disposal installation services in Charlotte and the surrounding area.

Do You Need a New Garbage Disposal?

The familiar buzzing and grinding of a garbage disposal means that large food scraps are being turned into tiny food particles and whisked away down the drain. It’s an important part of your kitchen, and knowing when to replace it with a newer system can make sure you’re never without the convenience of a garbage disposal for long.

Let's talk about some of the signs you need to replace your garbage disposal.

Common Reasons to Install
a New Garbage Disposal

Your Disposal Is Over 8–10 Years Old

Garbage disposals usually aren’t one of the longer-lasting appliances in a kitchen. They have lots of moving parts and experience a ton of wear, giving them a typical lifespan of around 8-10 years. Replacing it with a newer model can save you from the hassle of constant repairs.

Repairs Are Becoming More Frequent

If you’re constantly dealing with garbage disposal issues, it can feel like a gamble to even flip the switch and start the system up. Constant fixes can add up quickly, and a replacement might actually be the more cost-effective solution in the long run.

You’re Ready for an Upgrade

Even if your current disposal works, it might not be meeting your needs. Modern disposals are quieter, more efficient, and can handle tougher food scraps. If you want a system that keeps up with your kitchen routine, upgrading to a newer model can make a big difference.

Protecting Your Garbage Disposal

Now that you’ve installed a new garbage disposal, how can you make it last as long as possible? We all like keeping money in our pockets, and with garbage disposals, that starts with keeping things out that shouldn’t be there in the first place. Be sure to refrain from throwing these things down the drain:

  • Grease, Fats, and Oils: These can solidify in your pipes, causing clogs and damaging your disposal.
  • Fibrous Foods: Items like celery, corn husks, and onion skins can wrap around the blades, jamming the system.
  • Hard Items: Bones, fruit pits, and shells are too tough for the blades and can damage the motor.
  • Starchy Foods: Pasta, rice, and potatoes can expand and create blockages in the disposal or pipes.
  • Non-Food Items: Utensils, plastic, or anything that isn’t biodegradable can jam the motor or break the blades.

So be sure to be mindful of what goes down your garbage disposal. With just a little care, your garbage disposal can stay in tip-top condition and make kitchen cleanup a breeze for years to come!
