Answer 1

How about for a minimum of one month's rent free.  Or two.  Plus your landlord can pay for all the equipment and supplies needed, including safety gear and a dumpster.  And your land lord should take out health insurance in case you get sick from exposure to something.  Get your agreement in writing, signed.

If by any chance this was a meth lab don't go anywhere near it.  Very toxic stuff abounds in such places.

Bottom line.  Your safety and health comes first.  If you are not professionally trained and properly equipped to deal with this, then don't.  Be well.

Answer 2

I would charge hazard wages. Going into that type of environment could effect you. I would charge at least $18.00 an hour. Make sure you also wear gloves and one of those germ masks. Gross. I once moved into an apartment with a guy who lived there several months before me, when I got there he didn't do the dishes for 4 months, the sink was full of maggots.

Answer 3

12 dollars an hour

Answer 4

I just did one similar and charged $35 an hour.You may need to find a helper to get the rough stuff and pay them accordingly.I would see if you could find a teen and pay at least $15 cash and pass the cost along.

I would say there is always the possibility that needles may have been used there,so use caution.Follow a good safety plan,you may wish to bomb the place first for the bugs,I would let landlord do that (liability).

Hey,it's a job and somebody has to do it.

Answer 9

Answer 10

You need to charge him hour plus labor. I would charge $20 per hour, and for labor I don't know how they charge for labor. It should be your landlord job to clean up the dump. You need to look at your rental agreement, because if it his job his need to do it. And you need to call the city on him. If you do it and you get sick or hurt. He won't get in trouble.

Answer 11

At least $20 an hour, and plz wear protective clothing, gloves, resperator, boots, etc, the OSHA, and EPA wouldn't be happy if they found out.
