Per Mile Installation Charges?

[Sven]

I bidding on a big job in which some of the signs will be installed at a good distance from me -- maybe an hour away. Anybody charging an additional per mile fee to account for gas, time, wear, etc.?

i just charge shop rate for all travel

shop rate for time traveled. we get the same bill from service techs and contractors we occasionally sub out to.

We charge shop rate for installers plus $.52 per mile for the vehicle. We live in a large metropolitan area and only charge for trips over an hour.

we charge our normal install rate for travel time

same as all others. install rate. So if it's 1 hr away, that's 2 hrs travel time - $170

if it's a big enough job, i might cut the travel costs down just a bit
