Quick answers

Can you haul away just one couch or chair?

Yes, a single bulky item is a normal scheduled job. It is billed at the scheduled rate with its minimum plus fuel, and the landfill fee is billed at cost from the receipt. A photo up front lets the written scope cover stairs, doorways and any disassembly.

Does the item need to be at the curb first?

No, the item can stay where it is, because carrying it out is part of the job. Clearing a path, taking photos of tight doorways and saying whether there are stairs makes the visit go faster.

Which single items are not hauled?

Pianos, safes, hot tubs and tires are not hauled, and neither is household hazardous waste such as paint, solvents, pesticides, propane tanks and batteries. Those chemicals belong at a household hazardous waste drop-off, which takes items that are poisonous, flammable, corrosive or toxic.

What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site

  • Carries one bulky item, such as a couch, recliner, dresser, treadmill or old grill, out of the house on furniture pads and a dolly.
  • Takes off legs, doors or loose shelves when that is what it takes to clear a doorway or stair turn without gouging walls.
  • Drives the item to the landfill or transfer station, with the disposal fee billed at cost from the receipt.

How it works

  1. Send a photo of the item and where it sits, noting stairs, tight turns and anything that has to come apart.
  2. Get a written scope and price before the visit, with disposal added at cost from the receipt.
  3. On the day, floors and door frames along the path are padded, the item is carried out and tied down, and the spot is swept.
  4. Referred out: pianos, safes and hot tubs go to specialty movers; paint, solvents, batteries and propane tanks go to a household hazardous waste drop-off; tires are not hauled.

When to stop and call

If the item is leaking fluid, smells of fuel or gas, or is too heavy to move without a strain, leave it where it is. 24/7 Express Handyman Service will look at a photo and say whether it can be hauled or needs a specialist.

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.

By zone

  • Zone A

    Salt Lake City & Millcreek

    From Salt Lake City's east side and Millcreek, a single item goes to the Salt Lake Valley Landfill, which charges a $17 flat rate for a car, SUV or pickup with a standard cargo bed. Couches fall under that flat rate or the $36 per ton mixed trash rate.

  • Zone B

    Park City & Summit County

    From Park City and the rest of Summit County, a single item goes to the Three Mile Canyon Landfill, where loads are charged by weight except freon units, tires, chipped green waste, mattresses and reuse items. Uncovered loads pay a double fee, so the item is covered and tied down.

  • Zone C

    Heber Valley & Wasatch County

    From the Heber Valley and the rest of Wasatch County, a single item goes to the Wasatch County Solid Waste Transfer Station, which takes items that do not fit in household waste containers. It charges $56 per ton, with a $20 minimum for a tarped or strapped load and $25 if unsecured. Since November 1, 2022, the station has told licensed contractors to take their loads elsewhere, so a hauled load may go to Ace Intermountain Recycling in Heber City instead; the fee is billed at cost either way.

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.
