Garbage disposal problems can derail any kitchen. While you may be incredibly conscientious when it comes to preventing food from going down your drain, there will always be some that slip through the gaps. And you know what that leads to? Clogged up pipes, and nobody wants that.
With a garbage disposal, it shreds this food for you so that it's small enough to pass through your plumbing system with no problems at all. Which is why you probably don't realize how much you rely on it until it breaks.
There are plenty of common issues that can cause your garbage disposal to malfunction, some of which include:

If it still won't turn on, or the unit is making a humming sound, it could mean there is something jammed inside of it.
A functioning unit should work very quickly. If it takes longer to grind up the food, it could mean the blades are dull or there is a clog further down the pipe.
