    Thanks for talking about the cost of actually doing the work so many of the guys talk about the gross but but not the true cost. I hear A lot of the other guys talk about that they made $2500 that day but they seem too forget about they spent $1500 out of the $2500 so they actually cleared $1000 or less for the day.

      Yup. That's literally why I made the video. I've seen so many "day in the life" junk removal videos that talk about how they made X amount or how they booked X amount in one day and how you can to. Shut up and give me the fact! lol.

    Our dump fees in NH here are $162/ton. Sometimes we sell our scrap
    metal and recycle/sell items, if possible, to control costs. Do you ever
    figure in “mileage” cost (to job site & back) into your estimates ?

    Fun fact. I was driving through New Hampshire this summer and I saw one of those green historical signs. We talked about the soap stone quarry and that’s with the original soapstone sinks and countertops came from in New England. I wonder what you could’ve sold that for. I’m sure somebody would’ve paid decent money for it. You would’ve needed another two guys to probably get it out of there though huh

      What state are you in? I know the fridge doors is a law (I think) so nobody gets stuck in them, but the propane tanks are just a money grab. Classic MA move. I'm pretty sure other states are charged to get rid of propane as well though.

      This varies depending on the stage of your business. Starting out, you'll be doing most jobs on your own and using help for jobs with bigger pieces of furniture or jobs with multiple levels of a home, office, apartment etc. Personally, I always have 2 men on each job unless we know that one guy can do it (junk in a garage or backyard).

    • @SteveConroy1
      @SteveConroy1  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If we can back right up to the pile, we charge less. I do not charge more if it's in the basement or attic. If were going into the house, it doesn't matter where its coming from (unless the location of the junk is very difficult to access and remove it). Some companies charge extra if its on the second floor or third floor (attic). I found that since we work so efficiently, we do not have to charge extra for locations thus landing us more jobs because were not jacking up out rate.
