The families of the five men are facing bills of around £5,000 each to repatriate their bodies. A local newspaper has started a campaign to raise cash to help towards the costs of returning them to their home country of Gambia.
The bodies of all five men who died after a collapse at a scrapyard in Birmingham have now been recovered.
They were killed when a wall collapsed at Hawkeswood Metal Recycling in Nechells on Thursday morning.
Forensic post-mortem examinations are set to be carried out on the victims on Monday and the coroner has been kept closely informed.
After two days of recovery operation, police say the bodies were retrieved "safely and with dignity".
