Why Tracking Matters

Tasks like clean garbage disposal are easy to forget because they're infrequent. A simple log turns a fuzzy memory into a clear record you can trust, helping you avoid odors and clogs.

The recommended cadence is every month. Track it each time you complete it and you'll always know exactly when you last did it—and when you should do it next.
