Dropping a tray of ice cubes into a garbage disposal while running cold water is a fantastic, highly recommended maintenance practice to help clean internal grinding components. As the spinning blades shatter the hard ice cubes, the abrasive action scrapes away stubborn organic slime, grease buildup, and food residue clinging to the chamber walls and impeller edges. Adding a few citrus peels afterward neutralizes odors, verifying success when the chamber smells fresh and drains freely.
