One common question when shopping for a kitchen sink food disposal is whether to choose a corded or uncorded model.
-
Corded Garbage Disposals: Corded units come pre-wired and are easy to install, especially when replacing an existing disposal. They’re especially easy to install when replacing an existing garbage disposal with an outlet already available, making them a convenient, time-saving option for homeowners looking for a quick upgrade.
-
Uncorded Garbage Disposals: Uncorded models allow for hardwired installation, offering a cleaner look and more flexibility for new kitchen setups. These disposals are ideal for remodels or custom installations where electrical configuration varies.

Frequently Asked Questions: Food Disposals
How much does a new sink garbage disposal cost?
Garbage disposal prices typically range from $100 to $500, depending on power, features, and brand.
What garbage disposal do I need?
It depends on your household size and how often you cook. Smaller households usually do well with a ½-horsepower model, while larger families or frequent cooks may prefer ¾ to 1 horsepower for smoother, quieter performance.
Which is better: a corded or non-corded garbage disposal?
Both options work well. Corded disposals are easier to install if you already have an outlet under the sink, while non-corded disposals can be hardwired for a cleaner setup.
Can I install a garbage disposal myself?
Yes, many homeowners can install a garbage disposal on their own, especially when replacing an existing unit. However, if electrical or plumbing changes are needed, professional installation can save time and ensure everything is done safely.
