Debris removal in Salt Lake City

Debris removal in Salt Lake City covers the material a project or a storm leaves behind: drywall stacked in the garage after a bathroom remodel, old cabinets from a kitchen tear-out, deck boards pulled up last weekend, or a branch pile by the fence after a windstorm. Jeremy Saxey runs Salt City Junk Haulers out of Midvale and covers Salt Lake City and the whole Salt Lake Valley. He shows up with his pickup and trailer and loads the pile himself. There's no dumpster sitting in the driveway for a week.

Jeremy hauls three kinds of loads. Junk removal is items and cleanouts, the couch on the curb or the garage that's been full for years. Garbage collection is the trash side. Debris is the remodel and yard material in between. It usually comes as one pile, and most of it can't go to a donation center. Jeremy prices it from a photo, with a $100 minimum, and he'll tell you if something in the pile is out of his lane.

A few things to know before you text. Jeremy doesn't take rock, gravel, bricks, dirt, or anything that needs a shovel. Paint and chemicals stay off the trailer too, along with any other hazardous waste. Hot tubs are out as well. Most piles are gone within a few days, and he takes cash, card or Venmo. Text a photo to (801) 557-1063 and he'll send a price.

Renovation debris removal

A remodel leaves a pile. Torn-out cabinets, a stack of old flooring, drywall cutoffs and the countertop that got swapped. Jeremy backs the trailer up the driveway and loads it on. Keep it in one spot and the load goes quick. Broken concrete is a maybe. A few chunks sometimes ride along, but a busted-up patio is a no.

Demolition debris removal

Once something comes all the way down, Jeremy hauls what's left. A shed knocked flat, or a wall opened up inside with studs and drywall in a heap. Lumber, siding, cabinets, fixtures and old carpet all go on the trailer.

Scrap metal removal

Scrap metal skips the landfill. An old water heater in the garage, or the bed frame nobody wants. Chain-link fencing rolled up behind the shed, a rusted grill, exercise gear and a pile of pipe from the plumbing job. Jeremy loads it onto the trailer and it goes to the recycler instead of the dump. Fridges and freezers ride along too, +$25 each on top of the load.

Storm debris cleanup

After a big wind comes through the valley, the yard turns into a debris job. Limbs down across the lawn and fence panels flat on the ground. A shed roof in pieces and whatever blew in from the neighbor's. Jeremy hauls what the wind already knocked down. Limbs cut to arm length load faster. He's open 24/7, and most jobs get done within a few days.

Full rundown on the storm debris cleanup page.

Wood and pallet removal

Wood piles go on the trailer too. Broken pallets stacked behind a shop, old deck boards pulled up and leaned on the fence. Framing cutoffs and the lumber pile that's been in the side yard since spring. Jeremy stacks it on the trailer and hauls it off. Paint cans or chemicals mixed into the pile have to come out first, since he won't take those.

See the wood and pallet removal page.

Yard waste & debris removal

Yard waste goes on the same trailer as the rest of the debris. Brush from a bed that got cleared out and a pile of limbs the tree guy didn't haul. Jeremy loads it up and it goes to the landfill. He won't take dirt, rock, gravel or bricks, so keep those out of the pile.
