Abstract
A garbage disposal access assembly for retrieving an object from a garbage disposal includes an annular sleeve that is insertable into a throat of a garbage disposal to facilitate an unobstructed view into the garbage disposal. A conduit is attached to the annular sleeve and a light emitter is integrated into the conduit to illuminate an interior of the garbage disposal when the light emitter is turned on. A pair of tongs is insertable through the annular sleeve and into the garbage disposal when the annular sleeve is inserted into the throat of the garbage disposal. The tongs are sufficiently elongated to facilitate the user to retrieve a lost object from the garbage disposal.
