In the Heber Valley & Wasatch County zone

Basement loads from Wasatch County go to the transfer station at 2015 West 3000 South in Heber City, which charges $56 per ton with a $20 minimum for a tarped or strapped load. Wasatch County has no household hazardous waste program of its own, so paint and chemicals need another drop-off. Since November 1, 2022, the station has told licensed contractors to take their loads elsewhere, so a hauled load may go to Ace Intermountain Recycling in Heber City instead; the fee is billed at cost either way.

What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Carries boxes, bins, old furniture and shelving up the basement stairs and out to the truck
  • Sorts the load into keep, donate, recycle and landfill piles as it comes out, so nothing you want leaves by mistake
  • Sweeps the cleared floor and takes down freestanding shelving units that are going with the load

How it works

  1. Walk-through of the basement, with photos, to agree on what stays, what is donated and what is hauled
  2. Paint, solvents, pesticides, propane and batteries are set aside for you to take to a household hazardous waste drop-off
  3. Carry-out, sorting and loading, then a sweep of the cleared floor
  4. Referred out: standing water or leaks go to a licensed plumber, and heavy mold growth goes to a mold remediation company before hauling

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; disposal is billed at cost from the landfill or transfer-station receipt, and nothing leaves the basement until you approve the list.
  • Photograph the damage before anything is moved and keep every receipt; 24/7 Express Handyman Service provides an itemised invoice your insurer may ask for. The dispatch fee and job cost are paid by you on the day.
