What is a "garbage disposal unit"?
A garbage disposal unit is a device installed under a kitchen sink that helps grind and shred food waste into smaller pieces so they can be safely flushed down the drain. It works by using a motor to rotate a set of blades, which break down the waste into fine particles. This unit helps reduce the amount of food waste that ends up in the trash and makes cleaning up after meals more convenient. Garbage disposal units are commonly found in many homes and are considered a helpful tool for maintaining a clean and odor-free kitchen.
