What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site
- Clears furniture, beds, appliances, boxes and household goods room by room once the family has taken what it wants
- Sets aside papers, photos, cash, keys and anything that looks personal for the family instead of tossing it
- Routes usable furniture and building materials to donation and the rest to the landfill
How it works
- A walk-through with the person handling the estate to mark what stays, what is donated and what goes
- Medications and hazardous products such as paint, chemicals and propane are set aside for take-back or a household hazardous waste drop-off
- Room-by-room clear-out with a box for any personal papers or valuables found, then a sweep of each emptied room
- Referred out: disconnecting gas ranges, dryers or hardwired appliances goes to a licensed trade, and pianos, safes and hot tubs go to a specialty mover
What happens next
- The written scope and price come first; disposal is billed at cost from the landfill or transfer-station receipt, and only the person with authority over the estate approves what leaves.
- 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.
Every job 24/7 Express Handyman Service takes on is under $3,000 including labor, materials and any change orders (Utah Code §58-55-305); a change that would push a job over that line is referred to a licensed contractor, not written up as a second job. plumbing, electrical, HVAC, gas appliance / combustion system work is referred to a licensed trade.
