TrashLab gives independent waste companies one connected system for dispatch, routing, billing, CRM, customer portal, driver proof, and reporting so the business can scale without stitching together QuickBooks notes, paper route sheets, and disconnected point tools.

  • Built for independent haulers running residential, commercial, roll-off, or mixed service
  • Dispatch, CRM, billing, driver proof, customer portal, and reporting share one record
  • Designed to reduce office calls, missed charges, duplicate entry, and owner guesswork

Private haulers feel software gaps immediately

When the owner, dispatcher, CSR, billing person, and driver team are small, every disconnected workflow becomes visible. A missed note becomes a customer call. A skipped billing charge becomes margin leakage. A route change that lives in a text thread becomes a second conversation at invoice time.

  • The same people handle sales, dispatch, billing, and customer service from different tools.

  • Work gets scheduled before customer status, site notes, route capacity, or pricing are checked.

  • Drivers capture proof in texts or paper instead of the system billing and CSRs use.

  • QuickBooks becomes the cleanup step for customer, invoice, and payment records.

  • Owners cannot see missed charges, AR, complaints, and route profitability in time to act.

  • New hires learn tribal workflow instead of a repeatable operating system.

Capabilities private haulers should not compromise on

Private haulers need software that is narrow enough for waste workflows and broad enough to replace the stack of one-off tools around the operation.
  • Shared customer record

    Keep contacts, service sites, pricing, notes, service history, invoices, payments, and portal activity together.

  • Connected dispatch

    Schedule recurring work and one-off jobs with route, driver, truck, customer, and billing context visible.

  • Driver proof

    Capture photos, timestamps, exception reasons, disposal details, and completion status from the field.

  • Billing capture

    Turn completed work, extras, rental days, blocked access, contamination, and disposal into invoice-ready records.

  • Customer portal

    Give customers online access to payments, statements, service requests, and account history.

  • Owner visibility

    Track revenue leakage, route completion, AR, customer profitability, churn risk, and service quality without manual data joins.

A private hauler workflow that scales

TrashLab keeps the first call, the dispatch plan, the driver proof, and the invoice tied to one operating record.
  1. Step 1

    Capture demand

    Turn calls, forms, and portal requests into structured work with the customer context attached.

    • Check service area, account status, site notes, and pricing before booking
    • Create quotes, jobs, and follow-up tasks without duplicate entry
    • Keep sales, customer service, and dispatch on the same record
  2. Step 2

    Execute service

    Give dispatchers and drivers a current view of what has to happen today.

    • Assign routes, drivers, trucks, and service priorities
    • Capture completed work, skipped stops, photos, and exceptions
    • Surface route status to the office without another call to the driver
  3. Step 3

    Bill and manage

    Use field truth to bill faster and manage the business with less lag.

    • Review invoice-ready work with proof attached
    • Sync clean customer, invoice, and payment records to accounting
    • Report on missed charges, AR, complaints, and route profitability
