Whose disposal is it
Start with who maintains it. In an owner-occupied house that is you; in a rental it usually is not.
Then read across to what it does. Dead, humming, smelling — three faults, three different answers.
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.
