That depends on the type of chair, is it like a dinning chair because if it is £20 - £25 is far to much as they only take a few minutes each and these are more likely to be priced about £6.00 per chair

the seats are theater seats, quoted for all the corridor carpets then they asked for quote for all seats :D looks like it could be a good little earner although £5 seems alot really as they prob only take 5mins a seat.

We recently cleaned 50 office chairs @ £6.00. They are about the same size so I would definately go for that if you can.

Try not to go for less. I know 100 chairs @ say £4.00 sounds a lot but boy will you be working for it. You'll be knackered with a wrist ache and it will be very tiring. Dont forget you will be using the same muscles constantly and the repetition will get to you.

Your worth it, go for £6.00 if you can  ;)

£25 a chair lollllllllllllllllllllll    So you're gonna get £2500 to clean 100 chairs. So by my reckoning you should be a millionaire this time next year. Some of the pricing on this site is from effing cloud cuckoo land. I pity newbeeies on here who swallow all this. They'll be very disappointed.

Anyone attempting to charge £15 - £25 will not get the work, so they will NOT be a millionaire, at least not from daydreaming !

I think Charlie was maybe referring to domestic armchairs? I dont think he poss realised at that stage of the thread what they were - so just presumed?

Thats ok mate. If only all messages on here were clear, concise and everyone knew what was being referred to, it would be a happier place with less arguments  :P

in the real world 2.50 pounds a chair would do me , take a friend or wife, hubby , ect ect as the time is wasted mostly buy carrying the things around cleaning them is easy ...
