Garbage Disposal Maintenance and Safety Tips
Never put your hand down the disposal. Additionally, avoid touching the power switch when your hands are wet to prevent electrical hazards. If you have children at home, consider installing a “batch-feed” garbage disposal for enhanced safety, as this type of unit only operates when the cover is securely in place.
You also never want to put any of the following down a garbage disposal:
- Glass, metal, plastic, utensils, or any other inorganic materials
- Grease, oil, and fat
- Stringy vegetables
- Pasta or rice
- Pits and bones
- Coffee grounds and eggshells
- Large amounts of anything
