Depends on your area, but mine is $40 and covers me showing up. It's my charge for opening a vehicle or unlocking a door.

For a local call (within about 15 miles), $45 for the call. Any farther and it increases. I wouldn't charge anything to open a house or car.
As it turns out, there is only 1 way to do things...right, and fast.

Hehe. :wink:

$1000 / 8 hours (evening? whole night?) = $125 per hour. Nice. 8)
