Garbage Disposal Repair in Saratoga Springs, UT
In Saratoga Springs the disposal under the sink is almost always the household's own machine, on a drain line nobody else uses. 76% of the housing here is detached houses, and that is what decides who arranges the repair and who pays.
The quick answer
76% of the housing in Saratoga Springs is detached houses, which usually makes a garbage disposal the occupant's own machine on the occupant's own drain line. That settles who arranges the repair and who pays for it before anything is taken apart.

US Census Bureau, ACS 5-year estimates 2023, table B25024 (units in structure). Based on 11,273 housing units in and around Saratoga Springs, occupied or not.
Utah statewide sits 11 points higher on detached housing, which is why the town figure is the one published here.
That figure counts housing units rather than households, and it includes units standing empty — it describes the building stock, not the people in it.
Whose disposal is it
Ownership decides everything downstream of it, including who is allowed to have the work done at all.
Next, what you are actually hearing. Silence and a hum are different faults with different fixes, and confusing them wastes a visit.
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.
