Garbage Disposal Repair in North Miami Beach, FL
A disposal under a sink in North Miami Beach may be the landlord's fixture rather than the tenant's, and the drain it empties into may be shared. 93% of the housing here sits in multi-unit buildings, so the lease answers before the fault does.
The quick answer
Multi-unit buildings account for 93% of the housing in North Miami Beach. A disposal in one is frequently the landlord's responsibility, and a blockage in a stack shared with other homes is not a tenant's problem to solve alone.

Drawn from table B25024 of the American Community Survey, 5-year estimates, 2023 release: 33,749 housing units across the ZIP code areas covering North Miami Beach.
That is 47 points lower than Florida as a whole, so the state pattern would mislead you about this town.
Counted over housing units including vacant ones — the correct universe for a question about building type, and a different one from a household count.
Whose disposal is it
Work out who is responsible before you call anyone. Owners call contractors; tenants call the landlord, and doing it the other way round costs money.
Match what it is doing: silent, humming, jammed, leaking, or smelling.
And before any of that, the thing that prevents most of these calls: what should not go down it. Grease and fibrous waste cause more disposal failures than wear does.
