Re: RV or horse trailer detailing
Hey Hot Rod...painted or machined Aluminum? Simply the outside or the interior cleaned out also? (could be a little messy) Finally what is the condition and age? These items will assist you at making sure the job is profitable! We charge in the area of $12.00 -15.00 a foot minimum for painted trailers depending on the condition. If its torn up and dull the price could be as high as $20.00 - $22.00 a foot! If they desire a quick clean of the interior with a good pressure washing, that adds an additional $3-5 per foot!
Hope that helps!Comment

Re: RV or horse trailer detailing
The horse trailer sounds like a sh***y job if you ask me!!A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Re: RV or horse trailer detailing
I would estimate your total hours to do each trailer which will allow you to be more profitable. Lets say the total time on site for one trailer is estimated at five hours, I would bid the job at $200 - $250.00 minimum which would allow you to capture $40.00 - $50.00 per hour.
In our case, our desired shop rate for trailers is $60.00 - $70.00 an hour so we would provide numbers in the $300.00 to $400.00 a trailer.
I am not certain about your local area and the prices that your market will bare so the above is a guideline/suggestion only but does reflect real world expectations from our prospective.
Good luck,Comment
