Uhmmm… I am not familiar with garbage disposal. And we’re staying at a house with one. And it isn’t draining anylonger. The water is staying in the sink, turning on the disposal isn’t doing anything and I don’t know what to do.

Anyone know their way around a garbage disposal that might be able to tell me why the disposal isn’t draining any longer? And what I can do to get it to start draining?

maybe it’s clogged, if you can hear it working. try a toilet plunger, it’s worked for me a few times 🙂
