How much can you put in the disposal?

Posted by kelly (aka kelly) Dec 31 '08, 08:35

I use our disposal for stuff that drops into the sink/stuff that is left on dirty plates, but I've never dumped old containers of food down there or anything.

as much as you want, but you can't add it all at once. -- nm - loosilu Dec 31, 08:48
I've dumped tons of stuff in the disposal. Tons. make sure to run hot water...and you don't do it all at once...but feed it in.... -- nm - Remlik Dec 31, 08:38 5

  - Just don't put your hand in it -- nm - oblique Dec 31, 08:41
- I rarely run hot water in the disposal, because the pipe leading to main drain is plastic -- nm - amoxy Dec 31, 08:39 2
  - I've never heard that. My plumber told me to run the hot water cause it will flush the remains away better.... - Remlik Dec 31, 08:44

Everything. I haven't found much that it won't take -- nm - oblique Dec 31, 08:38 1

Sure, I do that, unless it is real stringy like Celery. And Egg shells tend to clog up the disposal -- nm - amoxy Dec 31, 08:37 1
- And lettuce and coffee grounds. -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 31, 08:40
