How Long Do Garbage Disposals Last?

As long as they are maintained correctly and do not sustain any significant amount of damage from improper use, garbage disposals can work for up to 15 years. To avoid any blockages in the piping beneath your kitchen sink, it’s wise to run your garbage disposal with cold water to help flush out remnants and particles hanging around.

Signs That You Should Replace Your Garbage Disposal

Odd New Noises

If you have heard new or unusual noises from your garbage disposal, this could be a sign of a severe issue. It’s worth checking down the drain with a flashlight for anything that could be blocking the unit.

These unusual sounds could be coming from something as simple as a sneaky piece of silverware slipping down the drain. If you do find something, make sure to remove it very carefully and then test the disposal to see if this has fixed the issue.

If you can’t find anything or the abnormal sounds persist after removing what you found, it’s best to call one of our professional plumbers to check it out!

Unpleasant Odors

While old food can give off some bad smells, a properly functioning garbage disposal shouldn’t cause odor issues. Once you have thoroughly rinsed and ran your disposal, assess whether the unpleasant smell has stuck around. If so, the cause of this could be stubborn pieces of old food stuck in the unit that are refusing to budge.

This can be remedied by calling Swift Services to remove the leftover pieces as long as your unit is not nearing 15 years old. If your garbage disposal is close to this age, it may be time for a new one altogether.
