Clogged Drains Troubleshooting Medium Safety

Why’s my garbage disposal not working?

If your garbage disposal won’t turn on, first check if it’s plugged in and if the circuit breaker has tripped. You can also try resetting the unit and checking for any blockages. If it still doesn’t work, or if you hear strange noises or smell something unusual, it’s best to call a plumber for assistance.
