Do you fix the damp as well?

We deal with the obvious causes - gutters discharging against the garage, grade falling toward it, gaps at the door seal. Structural damp needs a specialist.

Can you take away old paint and solvents?

We separate them and advise on disposal; they cannot go in a general load.

How much does it cost?

Quoted after we see it, in writing, with Labor and disposal shown separately. A clear-out and a full rebuilt fit-out are very different numbers, which is exactly why we will not put one on a page.

How long does it take?

A clear-out is usually a day. Replacing the storage as well makes it two.

What happens to what you take?

Sorted into donation and disposal, and donatable items go to donation rather than to the tip.

Garage Cleanup in Grand Ledge, MI | Clear-Out & Haul-Away

Garage Cleanup in Grand Ledge, MI

Is your garage in Grand Ledge, MI doing less storing and more accumulating? If you have given up on parking inside, or you cannot find a tool without a search, Haslett Handyman Company will clear it out and haul it away.

We cover the Grand Ledge area for clear-outs, haul-away and the storage build afterwards — and around here, quite often, replacing storage that the damp has already destroyed.

What it costs

We quote per job, after seeing it, in writing. No price list, no packages. The cost is set by how big the garage is and how much is in it, and neither of those can be known from a page. A quote made without seeing the volume is a guess, and volume is most of the cost.

What the quote is built from:

Size — single or two-car, plus any shed or outbuilding included in the same visit.
How full it is — the dominant factor. What we price is what goes out.
What is in it — appliances, furniture, construction debris, and here especially, swollen chipboard shelving that has to be dismantled and taken out in pieces.
Special disposal — paint, solvents, fuel, propane cylinders and garden chemicals cannot go in a general load.
The rebuild — if the storage has gone and needs replacing, that is a carpentry job on top, priced on materials and time.

Disposal is billed at cost with the receipt attached.

Does damp affect what you can store in a Grand Ledge garage?

More than people expect. Garages near the river run humid, and it shows up in what fails first: cardboard boxes collapsing at the bottom, particle-board shelving swelling and sagging, tools spotting with rust, and anything soft picking up a smell.

If you are rebuilding storage here, it is worth spending slightly more on the materials. Wire or coated-steel shelving, plastic bins rather than cardboard, and keeping the bottom shelf off the slab rather than on it will outlast a cheaper fit-out several times over.

What do we do about storage that has already gone?

We take it out. Swollen chipboard shelving and damp cardboard are not worth saving, and reloading a damaged system just repeats the problem. We will tell you honestly what can stay.

What we take, and what we cannot

Clearing a space out and hauling it away is routine work for us — trash-outs, furniture and appliance removal, carpet and demolition debris, brush off a lot. A garage is the same labor and the same trailer.

We take household junk and boxes, furniture, mattresses, appliances, bikes and sports gear, lawn equipment, old shelving and cabinets, carpet, construction debris, scrap timber, yard waste and electronics. We cannot put liquid paint, solvents, motor oil or fuel, propane cylinders, pesticides and pool chemicals, car batteries, ammunition or suspected asbestos in a general load.
