Celery has clogged my sink garbage disposal. What do I do??

I have been cleaning out, by hand, as much as I can. I can't feel any more celery, but it is still clogged. What can I do?

Celery has clogged my sink garbage disposal. What do I do??
First of all stop putting celery in the disposal.





Secondly Drain opener will NOT harm your metal pipes unless they are already corroded or rusted, a plumber told me they used it to find small leaks because it will open up a small leak caused by rusted or corroded pipe to open up. So it will not cause damage to metal pipes in good shape it only increases the existing damage to rusted or corroded metal pipes.
Reply:use a commode plunger on it. it always fixes mine as long as it is running.
Reply:carpenter is right
Reply:Don't panic unnecescelery.
Reply:you shouldnt put anything fiberous in your disposal. like onion skins celery garlic skins this kind of material will cause it to clog up. At the bottom of your disposer there should be a hole so that you can stick in a allen key or hax head key. it should of come with one. if you dont have one then go to a hardware store and buy one. it should be in the plummbing section. use that key to try to rotate the the motor and free it from the stuck position. Next check to see if the reset button needs to be pressed.
Reply:You may have to disassemble the pipes because most likely it's all clogged down in there too. All you took care of was what was in the disposal. Draino and the likes is not tough enough dissolve all that.
Reply:gross... first of all.. you should dumped them in garbage instead of trying to dispose it!!





what you got to do is.. go out and buy drainol or sink disposal fluid from grocery store..





becareful to make sure to follow directions or it can seriously ruin your pipes..
Reply:You need a set of allen wrenches.Under the sink unplug the dispposer,unsing your hand clean out all the debris you can.On the bottom of the dis. unit you will find a little button ,this is a reset for when the motor trips,push it.Again under the dis. unit in the center you will find a hole, find the correct size allen wrench and turn until the blades free up.Plug unit back in and give it a whirl if it does not work repeat all steps, there could be more stuff in the unit. If it still does not work chances are you need a new unit.Those are super easy to install!
