Default Toilet Install Pricing

Ok guys, I know this is a really stupid question, but I just got in **** at work for telling them our toilet install prices are insanely high. Let me know what you think of these prices (I know they vary job to job, but these are for standard re-and-re installs).

Basic Install: (new toilet in same position as old, new supply line and wax ring, functionailty test) $195

Delivery of toilet: $50

Disposal of old toilet: $40

Supply and install new shutoff: $25.00

Any other work is priced on a case by case basis.

Does this seem abnormally high to you, or am I crazy?

I have a question regarding the "delivery of toilet." Does this mean that you supply the toilet as well, and mark up the price?

I work for a big box rertailer. The customer can either buy the toilet and take it home themselves, or our installer will pick it up and take it to them for an additional $50.

I myself feel the prices seem OK, except for the delivery and / or disposal prices. As a consumer, I'd much rather pay a few bucks more but get rid of the pricing for the delivery / disposal.

Overall, I would say that the price isn't way out of bounds.

Not a pricing expert by any means, that is just my semi educated opinion.

Seems pretty average to me but then again I would never pay $200 for someone to pop a toilet on for me.
