My wife used to do that kind of thing. I fixed that problem by removing the garbage disposal.

For clogs that aren't too far down (like in the trap) this thing really works:
http://www.amazon.com/Cobra-Products...s=drain+snakes The teeth grab chunks of the gunk and draw it out rather than trying to shove the whole thing deeper. They are also all of a couple bucks at the local hardware store. Since they are so cheap, you can just toss 'em if they get too gross. |

That kind of stinks. Sorry to hear. We had sink backups two Thanksgivings in a row before we learned that potato peelings basically turn into concrete when run down a garbage disposal. I don't know how my wife and I both lived 40+ years without learning that.

Garbage Disposals and Women. Good Recipe for a clog.
I have heard the best way to clean a garbage disposal is with ice? Any input on that? Oh and I don't have one, but my ex-wifes is clogged right now. |

Reading this makes me glad we don't have a garbage disposal.
Don't really need one though. Meat scraps are eaten by the dog and/or cats and vegetation scraps are thrown on the compost pile. Since we have a septic tank, I try to put as little as possible down the drain. My MIL dumps cooking grease straight down the drain. I had to break my wife of that habit. |

Our local news did a segment about the day after Thanksgiving being the busiest of the year for plumbers. They call it "Brown Friday."
