Thanksgiving is a time for good food, full tables, and family traditions. But it’s also one of the busiest days of the year for plumbing systems—especially garbage disposals. With more cooking, more prep work, and more people helping in the kitchen, it’s easy for the disposal to become overloaded or damaged.
Understanding what not to put down your garbage disposal can help prevent clogs, jams, and costly repairs during your holiday gathering. A little caution goes a long way toward keeping your kitchen running smoothly on the biggest food day of the year.
