24 Timers Service is the title of the first album by Norwegian rock'n'roll band Vazelina Bilopphøggers. The band won a record contract at the National Rock Championships in 1980 and released the album in autumn of the same year. The single "Gi meg fri ikveld"/"Bilopphøggerboogie" was released before the album, and both songs did well on the Norsktoppen. The album was the only one on which Bjørn Berg and Torbjørn Nicolaysen appeared together.
