I feel in the suburbs where you have cookie cutter houses that all have garburators it must add a little bit of load. How does it compare to municipally run composting?

    TIL that garburator is a regional term.

    But considering NYC apparently banned them for several years until it was found that they didn’t damage the sewer system, probably not.

      Interesting. I had no idea that they banned it. I guess it means my question wasn’t as silly as I thought

        The sub exists for a reason, no such thing as a stupid question when it is legitimately in the pursuit of knowledge, no matter how trivial the knowledge may seem.
