The low end is a straightforward job with no surprises; the high end covers complex scope, premium materials or urgent timing.

Is Payroll Services cheaper in smaller cities?

How many quotes should I get for payroll service?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Providers serving Winston-Salem can tell you how it affects a typical job.
