Family Owned Junk Removal in Midvale

What the job involves in Midvale

Most Midvale junk removal jobs are won or lost before the truck arrives, in the survey and the plan. With roughly 35,989 residents, Midvale is a mid-sized community in Salt Lake County, and that shows up in the job: mostly detached houses with driveway access, and a mix of newer estates and older streets.

Every quote is written down before the job is booked, so nobody is negotiating on a driveway with a loaded truck.

What a Midvale job looks like

Every job follows the same order, because that is what keeps the estimate honest and the day calm.

• A look at what is going before a price is given
• Carry-out from wherever it sits — no requirement to move it to the kerb first
• Sorting for donation and recycling where the item allows
• Responsible disposal of the rest, with the tip run included
• A sweep of the space afterwards

The part people underestimate is the survey. An estimate given over the phone from a room count is a guess, and a guess is what turns into an argument on the day when the truck is full and the hallway is not empty.

Nothing here is subcontracted. The crew that quotes the job is employed by the company that turns up to do it, which is not true of every quote you will be comparing.

Moving around Midvale

Most of our Midvale work sits around Bingham Junction, Historic Main Street and Union Park, and each of those areas asks something slightly different of a crew — access, parking, the age of the housing, whether there is a lift involved.

We are usually in Murray, Sandy and Cottonwood Heights in the same week, so a junk removal job here rarely needs a separate trip charge — and if your move crosses between them, it is one crew rather than a handover.

Midvale runs on technology, retail and healthcare, and that shapes who is moving and when: term dates, transfer seasons and the end of a build all bunch the calendar.

Everything here is covered from our own crews rather than subcontracted to whoever is free that day — Salt Lake County included.

Because we started in St. George in 2012 and came north afterwards, a Midvale to Southern Utah move runs on one crew rather than two companies and a transfer.

Who actually turns up to a junk removal job in Midvale

This is Justin and Miranda Ruuth's business, started in 2012 and still run by them. The crews are employed and background-checked, not day labour hired for the date.

That matters for the question nobody asks out loud, which is who is going to be walking through my house. You get the same company on the phone, on the estimate and on the day.

If something goes wrong, the person you complain to is the person who owns the company. That is worth more than a guarantee written on a website.

Booking a Midvale job

From November to March the loading end is the problem, not the driving. We plan winter jobs around daylight and grit the access before the crew arrives rather than after someone slips.

Month-end and the summer weeks fill first. If your date is flexible by a fortnight, say so — it is often worth money.

Five things make the difference between a quote and a guess:

• A rough inventory, even a phone video walked room to room — it is the single thing that makes an estimate accurate
• Your dates, including the one that cannot move and the one that can
• Anything unusually heavy or awkward: a safe, a piano, a tub, a treadmill, a fish tank
• Access notes at both ends — stairs, lifts, gates, parking, gate codes
• What is NOT coming with you, which is often the cheapest decision in the whole move

Ring (435) 862-3080 and describe the job. You will get a written estimate, and an honest answer if the date you want is not realistic.
