Just my humble opinion, but.......a rip-off is a rip-off. Their overhead should be covered in their labor rates. That is why the average shop today is charging $100 per hour and paying the mechanic $20 to $23 per FLAT RATE HOUR. Somehow, the idea of GREED comes in here. Surcharges are normally made for items that are either temporary in nature or to cover frequently fluctuating costs. Like heat in the winter costs more than opening the doors in the spring and summer. Fuel costs vary. Costs of disposal of hazardous materials is pretty much a fixed cost, and will probably only go UP. Surcharges are another way of cowardly business owners to further line their pockets without facing loss of business from raising their labor rates. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! I get a bit worked up over things like this. I worked in dealerships for many years, and many times had a hard time making a living due to lack of work. They were not bashful about ripping off the customers, but they sure were about paying their help.
