In Federal Heights
Most of the bungalows and English Tudor cottages in Federal Heights are in the original Federal Heights subdivision, while most of the Colonial Revival and Neo-Classical residences are in the Bonneville-on-the-Hill development above it. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) The Federal Heights land was annexed to Salt Lake City in October 1907, and by 1909 its developer was surveying, platting, grading and improving the subdivision's streets and building lots. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) Federal Heights borders two protected open spaces, the Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area and the Tomahawk Natural Area, and has access to numerous hiking trails on the foothills. (Federal Heights Neighborhood | Council District 3 (SLC.gov)) In the Bonneville-on-the-Hill section of Federal Heights, lot sizes were increased and parcels sold ad hoc, and wealthy families built increasingly grander mansions there from the 1920s into the 1970s. (National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Edward & Harriett Rosenbaum House (Utah SHPO)) About 30,000 typical brick homes built in Salt Lake City before 1970 are considered unreinforced masonry houses, which emergency management experts call an enormous safety risk in a major earthquake.

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
- Send a photo of the item and where it sits, noting stairs, tight turns and anything that has to come apart.
- Get a written scope and price before the visit, with disposal added at cost from the receipt.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
