I feel in the suburbs where you have cookie cutter houses that all have garburators it must add a little bit of load. How does it compare to municipally run composting?

      As a Canadian, I’ve never heard it called a Garbage Disposal before. Garbage disposal here is done by two guys and a truck once a week.

          One of the popular brands is the insinkerator. I always thought that was a good name for it.

            For a long time as a kid I thought those were In-sink Erators, and that an Erator was something that blended garbage.

            I distinctly remember telling a plumber my parents had called “I think its the erator” and him just nodding and smiling 😅

          I’ve got all the wiring etc. for one, but chose not to install, opting for municipal composting instead. The odd time that I need to macerate, I just run stuff through my blender.
