    Ironing - How much would you expect to pay?

    I am having someone help me out with some ironing - 30 work shirts of DH's - but she just said to pay her what i wanted - so is there a 'standard' so to speak - $? per shirt or $? per hour....

    Thanks very much

    We used to get shirts done (just ironing not laundering as well) it was $2.5/shirt then went up to $3/shirt. We no longer do it as I am at home and we can't justify the extra $$$. There was another place that did them for $2/shirt but we only went there once as they did such a bad job.

    A local person with an ironing business in my area charges $2 per shirt. I guess if each shirt takes 5 minutes to iron, that works out to be $24 an hour. They also pick up and drop off which I guess they factor into their pricing.
