I would charge a minimum of $800 for any type of structural demo under 300 square feet, then anything over that $4-$12 a square foot depending on the job if it’s concrete, brick removal then I’ll definitely charge more

Not a bad way to price it. You have to adjust for disposal cost in your area. Also some garages have bigger footers than others. Once and a while you do more than you figured, that's the demo business.

We do the estimate ballpark over the phone. If they are good with that we charge a site assessment fee that we apply to the final invoice if they go with us.

Is there a standard number (lbs/sq. ft.) used when determining how many dumpsters will be needed for a certain size house? I need to demo a 900 square foot wooden house and dont know how to estimate the amount of waste I'll need to get rid of. Thanks in advance

Stanley are we still doing $3.00 a square foot? I have a customer requesting a porch to be demolished and taken away. Very VERY narrow drive way and will be difficult to back the trailer into the customers yard.

Just demo It’s at least 2k in dump fees

@@MountainManservices Dump fees vary widely between different areas. I know in west Los Angeles the cheapest place is like $120/ton. I know guys who charge $600+ to fill up their truck and dump it. In Salt Lake City it's $33/ton, and most guys will charge $100-200 to take a load of stuff to the dump

In most areas, you usually need a demolition permit to demolish a structure that is larger than a certain size,(usually calculated by height and square footage or meterage). This can be found by researching your local building codes and regulations. A business license is necessary to run the demolition business as you need to pay taxes and register the business. If you are going to drive a dump truck or other trucks, you would likely need a CDL or commercial drivers license Permits may be necessary to transport excavators or other heavy equipment to job sites as well. If you plan on removing a building with asbestos or other toxic materials, that would need a permit too. Digging soil would probably require an excavation permit. The site's utilities have be cut by a licensed professional and that would probably need a permit too. Hauling materials like concrete or insulation and wood out would require a permit also. Best thing to do is check with your local government for permits and for licenses. (This is the knowledge I have and you should double check with your government before you do this). Hope this helps you out.

People are gonna be lame NPCs I'm sorry about that😔. Try looking into getting your contactor license. It takes while but if this is what you're passionate about . 🤷🏽‍♂️. Contractor = person who manages subcontractors during a project. Subcontractors= plumbers, electrician, handyman, fencer, roofer, & so on . I think a demolition guy might be a subcontractors too🤔 idk man I'm just tryna give you direction unlike these NPCs. Hope it helps☺️

I'm just curious why you don't have a grapple truck in your company. I'm looking to start my own Demolition company an felt that a grapple truck would be convenient in most Demolition?

@Dirtmonkey 7 жыл бұрын

Not so much -I prefer a more universal machine so around here you see demo's done with excavators and a claw.

Hi Stan Do you still feel this pricing is correct? Sounds really cheap. Here in Canada I ripped out a small garage and it cost me around $1,200 to dispose of it. It was the only one I did and I've been thinking of doing more. Thats how I landed on your video. I know this video is 5 years old but do you guys have cheap dumping fees ?

@ej7866 2 жыл бұрын

Jason Lajaro If it cost you $1200 to dispose of it then I would’ve charged $3600 to remove it

@@ej7866 Thanks Ej for your response. I just ripped out another garage yesterday. I'll be editing it and uploading it soon. It was a double car garage and I charged 5k with the removal of the concrete as well. This time my dump fees were cheaper around $800. Is your quote for $3600 including the concrete pad? Thanks for any help given 👌

How is there room for profit at these rates unless you have your own equipment and dumpsters? Equipment and dumpsters could cost over $1200 for a Garage.

I did a job recently that was outside my usual service area. charged my usual fee, went to the dump on that side of town, and found out it cost nearly triple what I'm used to paying. Nearly have my fee gone. Didn't complain to the customer, lesson learned. DO YOUR RESEARCH. Figure out your actual costs, then include a modest markup so you're making money but staying competitive.

You'd be surprised with 1 machine and 1 truck and depending on disposal fees 1 guy can do it pretty quick and nice profit where I live I can take the wood to my property and burn it and any brick or concrete the county has sites you can dump for free and they use it to dump along river banks where it's eroding close to the road and farmers will let you dump along field edges where creeks and rivers bend my dad and I just demoed a big farmhouse with a tractor and silage truck cost us around 300 in fuel took us almost a month because we kept the cabinets and woodwork none of it was painted pulled all the copper out pulled it to the ground loaded it hauled less than 5 miles to our ditch dumped and got paid 5k for something we did in our spare time
