A shop will probably charge you a couple hundred to do it. Just do it yourself. Go rent some spring compressors from autozone, and as long as you have some basic mechanical knowledge it is simple. you will want to get an alignment done afterwards.

I just put a set of springs and shocks on my vert the the other day. Simple steps, but a bit frustrating at times. Theres a little metal clip that holds the brake line to the spindle and iit can be a pain to get back on. You can do it.
