Pricing tips for junk removal

  • Price by volume with photos before you arrive. Customers like a range they can trust.
  • Appliances, mattresses and tires often carry their own disposal fees. Show them as lines.
  • Stairs and long carries take time. Add a line for them instead of padding the volume price.
