The cost of the new sign is $53,231.00. This includes installation of a new 15.85 mm message <br />center on our current sign base, removal and disposal of existing sign, 5 year warranty on parts & 1 year <br />warranty on labor, and lifetime cellular plan. Electrical hookup for the new sign will be an additional charge.
