The family home produces quite a lot of kitchen waste. Although some of it can be recycled, such as putting the waste into your garden compost, other waste is unrecyclable and must be disposed of in the bin. This includes waste like chicken bones, bread crusts and other kitchen scraps. You can quickly find that your kitchen bin fills up with this waste, leading to more trips to empty it and, ultimately, more waste ending up in the landfill. The solution to this issue is to buy a kitchen waste disposal unit. This will cut unrecyclable waste down into fine particles that are then disposed of via your main drain. So there are no more constant trips to the outside bin, and the planet can breathe a little easier thanks to less waste in a landfill. 1 Stage grind process This Insinkerator waste disposal unit features one stage of grinding.
