Garbage Disposal Repair in Randolph, MA
Attached or detached, a single-family kitchen in Randolph drains through one branch line of its own. 70% of the housing here is single-family, which ordinarily puts both the machine and the blockage in the occupant's hands.
The quick answer
70% of the housing in Randolph is single-family. That ordinarily puts the disposal and the drain beneath it in the occupant's hands, even where the house shares a party wall with the one next door.

Drawn from table B25024 of the American Community Survey, 5-year estimates, 2023 release: 13,091 housing units across the ZIP code areas covering Randolph.
Against Massachusetts as a whole that is 16 points higher — a real gap rather than a rounding one.
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.
