I have my minimum for one room to 105.00
How many of you have a minimum charge just to leave?
What's the cost of gas chemicals and my time I think that's reasonable.

$125.00 for me to put a van in the driveway and stretch in a hose.... We operate out of Hamilton county and do mostly million dollar plus houses and usually get 0 kickback...

Minimum is $150 in my direct service area. $200 outside of that. I get a lot of 1 or 2 room jobs. Some people say "that's outrageous", others say, "that's reasonable". I only work for reasonable people.

That's why I posted the question, people call and always say "I'll call back" they never do.

Our minimum service charge is $180. In 1 year we went from $140, to $160, to $180. Figuring it out as I go. I worked for a customer that lives about 300 yards from us and told her I'd do the job for $160 since there is hardly any travel time, but she insisted on giving us $180. I think next year I am bumping it up to $190. It covers a little more of our expenses and doesn't hit the daunting $200 mark.

The furthest we travel for any job is about 45 minutes. On most days I have been able to line up other appointments close enough in proximity on the same day to make it make sense without having a higher minimum charge for those folks. Although sometimes it doesn't work out that way, maybe I should fix that.
