Cost To Haul A Dumpster
If you need a dumpster to contain junk, your costs will be higher because you’ll have to pay for gas and the disposal fees at the local landfill. You’ll also need to get a permit to park your dumpster on public property.
Labor Rates & Taxes
The labor portion of a junk hauling job will determine your cost, so it’s important to make sure you calculate your rates correctly. Generally, you’ll need a minimum of two workers on most jobs to help move things from your client’s home to your truck. If your customer has a lot of heavy or bulky items, your labor expenses will be higher, so be sure to factor them into your estimate.
Once you know the number of hours you’ll need to spend on a job, you can calculate your labor costs by multiplying the number of hours by your hourly rate. Then, add a 20% markup to cover your overhead expenses, such as taxes and insurance.
