We Fix Common Trash Compactor Issues
Trash compactors, like any other appliance, require regular maintenance to minimize the need for repairs.
If you're experiencing any of the following problems with your trash compactor, rest assured that Mr. Appliance® of Southwest Idaho is here to provide the repair service you need.
- The trash compactor won't work.
Ensure the drawer is completely closed and check the fuse, GFCI, circuit breaker, power cord, and key lock switch. If it still doesn't work, our experts are just a call away.
- The trash compactor won't compact garbage.
Slack or broken driving belts and a burned-out motor are common issues that prevent waste from being properly compacted. Leave it to our professionals to replace these parts for you.
- The door or drawer won't open.
Check if the ram has returned to the top correctly and inspect the tracks, guides, rollers, or wheels for dirt or damage. If you can't identify the issue or if something appears broken, our technicians can assist you.
- The trash compactor is noisy.
Some noise during operation is normal as the motor, belts, and gears work together to compress garbage. Excessive noise could indicate a problem that needs troubleshooting by our team.
- The trash compactor smells bad.
Over time, garbage residue may stick to various parts of the compactor. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for periodic cleaning.
Keep your trash compactor running smoothly by scheduling service with our reliable team today! Our professional technicians will ensure your compactor remains in peak condition so that you can enjoy its convenience every day.
If you have any questions or concerns about your appliances, don't hesitate to reach out to Mr. Appliance® of Southwest Idaho for expert advice and assistance.
