    Replacing a garbage disposal
    My garbage disposal just bit the dust - I am single and can't afford a plumber to come out and replace the disposal - Is it hard to install? What size do I buy?:confused:

    It is easy to replace. If you go to Hpme Depot or Lowe's they can help you with directions. Also they all have very easy to follow directions in the box. Especially easy since you are replacing instead of installing new. I would replace with the same size as you have now if you were satisfied with it's performance. Your size is stamped on the side of your old disposal. Good Luck
