Remodel debris from Salt Lake County goes to the Salt Lake Valley Landfill: construction debris pays the $17 flat rate in a pickup or the $36-per-ton mixed-trash rate, and clean broken concrete or asphalt is $12 per ton. Salt Lake City's Call 2 Haul does not take drywall, flooring or other construction material.

What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Loads drywall scraps, old cabinets, trim, flooring, packaging and fixtures already removed during a small remodel
  • Keeps clean broken concrete, brick or tile apart from wood and trash, since facilities price and accept them differently
  • Sweeps the work area and driveway after loading and picks up stray nails and screws

How it works

  1. Photos of the debris pile and a check of the home's age and the materials involved
  2. Suspect materials such as old vinyl flooring, ceiling texture or pipe wrap are left in place until tested
  3. Sorting, loading and covering the load, then a sweep and nail pickup
  4. Referred out: asbestos testing and removal go to a trained, accredited asbestos professional, and demolition of plumbing, wiring or structure goes to a licensed contractor

What happens next

  • The written scope and price come first; disposal is billed at cost from the landfill receipt, and suspect material is set aside rather than loaded.
  • 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.
