This tool calculates the cost of your junk removal based on the amount and type of items you want to get rid of.
Junk Removal Cost Calculator
This calculator helps you estimate the cost of junk removal based on several parameters: the total weight of the junk, the distance from the junk site, the hours of labor required, and whether the material is hazardous.
How to Use
- Enter the total weight of the junk in pounds.
- Enter the distance from the junk site in miles.
- Enter the hours of labor required for the removal.
- Enter ‘true’ if the material is hazardous or ‘false’ if it is not.
- Click the “Calculate” button to see the estimated cost.
How it Calculates
The calculator uses the following formula to estimate the cost:
total_weight * weight_rate + distance * distance_rate + labor_hours * labor_rate + hazard_fee
The variables represent the following:
- weight_rate: $0.50 per pound
- distance_rate: $2.00 per mile
- labor_rate: $25.00 per hour
- hazard_fee: $50.00 if the material is hazardous, else $0.00
Limitations
This is an estimation tool and may not reflect the actual cost. The actual cost of junk removal can vary based on other factors not accounted for in this calculator.
