In the Salt Lake City & Millcreek zone

Basement loads from Salt Lake County go to the Salt Lake Valley Landfill, which charges a $17 flat rate for a pickup or hand-unloaded trailer and $36 per ton for larger mixed loads. Its household hazardous waste facility takes paint, cleaning supplies, pesticides and batteries from residents, not businesses.

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.
