What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Sorts garage contents into keep, donate and haul piles with you, then loads the haul pile.
  • Hauls broken furniture, old bikes, lumber scraps, boxes, carpet remnants and worn-out tools and shelving.
  • Sweeps the floor once it is clear and sets paint, chemicals and fuel cans aside for a household hazardous waste drop-off.

How it works

  1. Send photos of the garage so the written scope names what goes and roughly how much.
  2. Get a written scope and price, with disposal added at cost from the receipt.
  3. On the day, items are sorted with you, the haul pile is loaded and tied down, and the floor is swept.
  4. Referred out: paint, solvents, pesticides, fuel, propane tanks and batteries go to a household hazardous waste drop-off; tires are not hauled; garage wiring and gas appliances go to a licensed electrician or gas fitter.

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; the landfill or transfer-station fee is added at cost from the receipt, and nothing is hauled until you approve the scope.
  • 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.
