Garage cleanouts in Salt Lake City are one whole space at a time, not one item. Jeremy clears garages, basements, sheds, attics, and carports around the Salt Lake Valley. You walk him through what stays and what goes, and everything in the go pile leaves.

Most cleanouts are more than one truckload, so Jeremy prices the whole job up front instead of by the hour, and works at whatever pace the situation needs. Anything that looks like it should be kept gets set aside for you to check before it leaves.

Usable furniture and household goods go to donation, metal and cardboard are recycled where they can be, and only the real trash goes to the landfill. Text a few photos to (801) 557-1063 or ask for a walkthrough.

What goes on the truck

  • Garages, sheds, and carports
  • Basements, attics, and crawl spaces
  • Unpacked boxes and broken furniture
  • Old carpet, shelving, and workbenches
  • Storage units
  • Bikes, sports gear, and exercise equipment

The full list of what goes on the truck, and what doesn't.

Garage cleanouts, plus basements, sheds, and storage units

A garage cleanout is usually boxes that were never unpacked, a wall of shelving, bikes nobody rides, a dead fridge, and the workbench underneath it all. Basements add furniture that was too heavy to carry back up, old carpet, and whatever the last owner left. Sheds are yard tools, broken patio furniture, and the panels from two fences ago. Storage units are all of the above, stacked to the ceiling.

Jeremy handles the full mix: furniture, boxes, bags, shelving, appliances, electronics, and loose clutter. He won't take hazardous waste (paint, solvents, pool chemicals, gas cans), hot tubs, or anything that needs a shovel. Set the hazardous stuff by the door and it stays behind.

When it's a whole house

A whole house is an estate cleanout, and it has its own page. You say what to watch for and he works room by room, with one price for all of it. Family there or not.

You get a cleared house without making a hundred small decisions about where each thing goes.

Hoarding situations are handled quietly, with no judgment and no audience. Jeremy works room by room, sets aside anything that looks important, and keeps the street side of the job as low-key as a pickup can be.

If it's a rental turnover or a move-out

A unit a tenant left full has its own page: rental property cleanouts. The couch and the bags left in a house after the moving truck pulls away are move-out trash removal, priced from a photo the same way.

Where a cleanout ends up

A cleanout usually fills the truck and trailer more than once. The real trash goes to the landfill, and that's not where you want to spend a day.

How cleanouts get priced, and how to keep the number down

Cleanouts are priced on truck-and-trailer loads, so the question is how many trips. Photos of each area get you a real number; a walkthrough works for bigger houses. To bring the price down: pull the keepers out first, consolidate into one or two rooms, and break down boxes. A two-car garage is typically a few hours. A full basement or estate can run a day or need a second trip, and that's in the price you get before anyone lifts a box.

How the price works

Text a photo of what needs to go to (801) 557-1063. Jeremy looks at how much room it takes on the truck and texts back one number for the whole job. No hourly rate, and the number doesn't change once it's loaded. Jobs start at $100. The only add-ons: mattress or box spring +$40, fridge or freezer +$25, stairs +$25. He tells you before he starts.

Jeremy shows up

He does the carrying. It doesn't have to be at the curb, but if the pile can wait there or in the driveway, it's quicker and cheaper. The truck leaves full and the space is yours.

“I had a lot of garbage I needed to get rid of quickly and Jeremy was able to fit me in the schedule the next day. He was quick and efficient and also swept my garage after hauling away all the junk. I am satisfied and would use his service again. Price was also very reasonable”

Questions

Questions about garage and basement cleanouts.

How long does a garage cleanout take?
A typical two-car garage is a few hours. Bigger basements and estates can run a full day or need a second trip, and that's built into the price you get up front.
Do you take the paint and chemicals from the garage?
No. Paint, solvents, pool chemicals, and gas cans stay behind. The county takes them from Salt Lake County residents at its Sandy drop-off or at the Salt Lake Valley or Trans-Jordan landfill.
Can you clear a storage unit?
Yes. Storage unit cleanouts have their own page. Send photos of the unit and the date you need it empty, and Jeremy will tell you if he can make it.
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes. Turnovers have their own page, rental property cleanouts, and Jeremy can work from a key or a code while you're elsewhere.
Do I have to sort it first?
No. Walk Jeremy through what stays and what goes, and everything in the go pile leaves. Anything questionable gets set aside for you to look at before it goes on the truck.
