How Can I Tell if My Garbage Disposal Is Clogged?

There are a few ways to tell if you have a clogged garbage disposal, including:

Humming Noises: Usually, if you hear a humming noise after turning on your garbage disposal, there is something stuck preventing the blades from rotating.
Water in your kitchen sink: If you turn on the garbage disposal, and the water does not drain, that typically indicates that you have a clog.
Bad Smells: Clogged drains lead to a build-up in bacteria, so if you are smelling unpleasant odors near your sink, you may have a clog.
Leaking Pipes: Another sign of a possible clog is if there is a leak in the pipes. If you notice small puddles underneath the pipes in your kitchen, contact AAA Drain Cleaning!

Why Is My Garbage Disposal Backing Up?

A clogged garbage disposal can occur for many reasons, but the most common culprit is the amount or type of food stuffed in the disposal. There are certain types of food that are known to clog garbage disposals, including:

Oil & Grease
Potato Peels and Vegetable Peels
Egg Shells
Coffee Grounds
Paper Towels & Napkins
Fruit Seeds

Clogged garbage disposals can lead to a number of different problems, including overflowing, tripping emergency shut-off mechanisms, and breaking the disposal mechanism itself.
