In the Salt Lake City & Millcreek zone
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
- Photos of the debris pile and a check of the home's age and the materials involved
- Suspect materials such as old vinyl flooring, ceiling texture or pipe wrap are left in place until tested
- Sorting, loading and covering the load, then a sweep and nail pickup
- 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.
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.
