Junk Removal Pricing And Disposal Cost
A $500 full load nets $357 on furniture. The same price absorbs only 7.6 tons of disposal — a truck's volume of concrete would weigh 18, so heavy loads are priced by weight, not by volume.
What the year has to bring in
The first worksheet page starts from $50,000 of take-home income,
$15,900 of overhead across the items listed and tax on profit,
and works out the revenue the business needs: $82,566.67 a
year. This business does not sell hours, so the kit does not turn that
into an hourly rate. Every step is printed, with a blank worksheet for your own
numbers.
You sell volume and you pay by the ton
A $500 full load nets $357.12 on furniture. The same price can absorb only 7.62 tons of disposal; a truck's volume of concrete would weigh 18 tons — more disposal than the price covers, and a weight to check against your truck's rated payload before you quote it.
Nothing about the load looks different when you are standing in the driveway agreeing a price, which is why the quote has to ask what the material is every single time. Includes illustrative densities for six material types (replace them with your own scale tickets), the price each truck fraction needs at a target margin for light and heavy loads, with crew time scaled to the load, a surcharge worksheet, and eight scripts — including the one for declining rubble at the standard rate.
8 client scripts
Each one carries a line explaining why it is worded that way, because
a script you do not understand is one you will not send. Placeholders are in
[BRACKETS] so nothing goes out in someone else's words.
- Quoting a load from photographs
- The pile that is twice the size on arrival
- Declining concrete, dirt and rubble at the standard rate
- Explaining a surcharge for mattresses and appliances
- The customer who wants it taken for free because it's "good stuff"
- A tenant clearance where nobody will say who pays
- Pricing a second load on the same day
- Raising prices when the transfer station raises theirs
What this is not
These numbers are not a market price. They are arithmetic
about you — what your income target requires. They do not tell you what your
market will pay. If the number is far above what your market bears, that is real
information: something has to move, and quietly working below the floor is the
one option that cannot last.
These are scripts, not contracts, and nothing here is legal
or tax advice. No script threatens statutory interest, collections or legal
action — whether any of those is available to you depends on your contract and
jurisdiction. The 25% tax figure is a placeholder; ask your accountant for
yours.
Honest about the format
A printable PDF, not a physical product and not an editable file. One US
Letter PDF (10 pages) and one A4 PDF (10 pages). Files are
available immediately after purchase; nothing ships.
Refunds
If this isn't what you expected, email me within 30 days and I'll refund you in full — no need to explain. Because it's an instant download I can't take the files back, so I'd rather you just had your money back.
