Junk Removal Pricing & Job Costing

Junk removal pricing calculator and business spreadsheet for quotes and job costing in one Excel workbook. Price a haul by the truck load or by the item, add dump and disposal fees, send the client a clean printable quote, then track what every job really cost and made.

MADE FOR JUNK REMOVAL

• The blank workbook comes with a starter price book of 22 common junk removal items: minimum, quarter, half, three-quarter and full truck loads, single item pickup, heavy item surcharge (piano, safe, hot tub), stairs or long carry surcharge, crew labour, light demolition, contractor bags, tarps and straps, fuel, hazardous waste disposal, dump trailer rental, roll-off bin, dump fee per ton, mattress disposal, appliance freon removal, tire disposal, electronics recycling and trip charge. Add your own costs once and reuse them on every quote
• Units that fit the trade: load, ton, ea, hr, visit, day, box, lot
• Your markup turns each cost into a price, and disposal fees pass through at cost unless you set a markup, so every quote shows your price, your cost and your profit before you send it
• Sample file: a filled-in hauling business, with a garage cleanout quote (half load, fridge, mattress, dump fee), eight jobs (basement and move-out cleanouts, a hot tub removal, construction debris, a shed demolition) and their costs

WHAT IT DOES

• Estimate builder: pick items or type your own, enter quantities, and unit prices, line totals, taxes, deposit and balance calculate for you. Your cost, gross profit and margin show before you send
• Client quote: a printable one-page quote with your business details, the client, line items, up to two taxes, deposit, terms and a signature line. Your costs and markup never appear on it
• Taxes: two tax lines with your own names and rates. Each applies to all lines, materials only, or labour only
• Jobs: status (lead, quoted, won, in progress, complete, lost), contract price, estimated vs actual cost, hours, profit, margin and money still owed (200 jobs)
• Costs log: dump receipts, crew hours and rentals against a job # (500 entries). Actual cost and hours flow to the Jobs tab automatically
• Dashboard: open quotes, won work, profit, money owed, win rate, costs by category, and jobs over estimate
• Default markup per category, or per item. Any currency

PLEASE NOTE

Same workbook engine as our Contractor Estimate & Job Costing template, set up for junk removal. If you already own that one, you don't need this. It prices and tracks jobs; it does not estimate truck volume from photos, schedule crews or send invoices. Sample prices and fees are examples only; enter your own costs, rates and local dump fees. Quoting and job-tracking tool, not tax, legal or accounting advice; set the rates and terms that apply to you, and follow the disposal rules where you work. Licensed for use in your own business; please don't resell or share the files.

DISCLAIMER

This template is a planning tool and does not replace advice from a qualified or licensed professional (such as an accountant, financial advisor, lawyer or certified tradesperson). Check the results before you rely on them.
