What sets the price
Typical small-animal removal can start around $400. Large carcass jobs such as deer may run around $700, with the final price depending on access and job conditions, so treat them as starting points rather than a rate card. Four things move the number. Check whether it is even your job first.
Size
Squirrel, raccoon, deer. Weight sets the floor.
Where it is
Lawn is a lift. Attic is a ladder and a search. Under a porch is somebody on their stomach. Enclosed costs more because it takes longer.
Access
Locked unit, no keyholder, dog, lot a truck cannot enter. Each adds time. Say it on the call.
Age
Fresh leaves little behind. Two weeks in a warm basement soaks in, and what it soaked into comes out too.
Fast number
Address, spot on the property, reachable or not. That gets most jobs priced on the phone. "Do not know" is a fine answer to the third.
What the figures are
Common starting points for this operator, not a fixed charge. Basement, vacant with a broken window, deer down a bank: each moves it. The operator states the actual figure before any work.
