Is TRUX being discontinued?

AMCS has not published an end-of-life date that we can find. AMCS says the TRUX products have been integrated into AMCS Platform and runs a Fast Start program to move TRUX customers there. Ask AMCS for your support end date in writing.

Can TrashLab import data from TRUX?

Yes. We restore your backup, import customers, job sites, rentals, routes, trucks and containers, and reconcile the counts with you in a sandbox before go-live.

Do we have to move to AMCS Platform?

No. Your TRUX contract decides what support you get and for how long. Moving to AMCS Platform is a new implementation, so you can compare it with any other system.

How long does a TRUX to TrashLab migration take?

Most haulers go live in weeks. The time goes into sandbox rounds with your own data, and you decide when you are ready to cut over.

Does TrashLab handle scale tickets like TRUX Weigh-IT?

Yes. TrashLab has scale software for transfer stations and landfills. Tickets, weights and disposal charges go to the same customer account and invoice.

Switching from TRUX

If you have to re-implement anyway, compare your options. TrashLab restores your TRUX backup, rebuilds your customers, sites, rentals and routes in a sandbox, and lets your team test it with real work before anything goes live.

We read TRUX database backups directly, so you do not re-key customers or sites.
Your team practices in a sandbox loaded with your own data before cutover.
Dispatch, driver app, billing and customer portal come in one product, not as add-ons.

Where TRUX stands today

Public statements from AMCS, the owner of TRUX. No end-of-life date is published, but the direction is clear.

Owner: AMCS, which acquired TRUX Route Management Systems Inc. in 2020.
Product status: AMCS says TRUX Haul-IT, Maintain-IT and Weigh-IT "have been integrated into AMCS Platform". Its TRUX page is titled "Trux Waste Management Software is now AMCS Platform".
Upgrade path offered: A "Fast Start Program for Trux" that moves customers to AMCS Platform, an Azure-hosted enterprise system.
Published end-of-life date: None found. Ask AMCS for a support end date in writing.

What it means for you

The roadmap points to AMCS Platform, not to TRUX. A move to AMCS Platform is a full re-implementation: new data model, new screens, new training. Because the work is the same size wherever you go, it is the right time to compare systems.

Why TRUX haulers look at a move

An acquisition changes the roadmap. These are the common reasons a TRUX hauler compares options.

The roadmap belongs to the new owner
AMCS says TRUX is now part of AMCS Platform. New features go where the owner invests, so ask what changes for TRUX and when.
An upgrade is a new implementation
Moving to AMCS Platform is a new implementation for your office to learn, with data to move and staff to retrain.
Modules to keep in line
Haul-IT, Maintain-IT and Weigh-IT are separate named modules. Ask what each one becomes on AMCS Platform.
Data you cannot easily get out
Years of customers, sites, rentals and AR live in the TRUX database. Most vendors ask you to export spreadsheets and clean them by hand.

TRUX, its upgrade path, and TrashLab

What changes for the office, the trucks and your customers. TRUX facts come from AMCS public pages.

Topic	TRUX	TrashLab
Where it runs	AMCS Platform: Azure cloud.	Cloud. Nothing to install or patch in your office.
Product scope	Haul-IT, Maintain-IT and Weigh-IT, now folded into AMCS Platform modules.	One cloud product: CRM, dispatch, driver app, billing, payments, customer portal and texting.
Moving your data	Fast Start program into AMCS Platform.	We restore your TRUX backup and import customers, sites, rentals, routes and assets for you.
Testing before go-live	Ask how many sandbox rounds are included.	Your own data in a sandbox, as many rounds as it takes, before you switch off the old system.
Drivers	Ask AMCS which in-cab app your package includes.	Native iOS and Android driver app with photos, signatures, weights and exceptions that flow to billing.
Customers	Part of AMCS Platform after upgrade.	Customer portal, online payments, autopay and two-way texting from your business number.

How a TRUX migration works

We read TRUX backups directly, so large customer and site lists do not slow the move. The order below keeps your operation running the whole time.

Step 1
Restore and reconcile
Send us a TRUX backup. We restore it in isolation and count every record before we import anything.
- Customers, job sites and contacts with their legacy IDs
- Active rentals, recurring and on-call
- Routes, trucks, containers and materials
Step 2
Sandbox rounds
Your dispatchers and billing team work real days in a sandbox. We fix what they find and load a fresh backup.
- Price cards and recurring charges checked line by line
- Opening AR balances matched to TRUX aging
- Drivers try the app on their own routes
Step 3
Cutover
We load the final backup at a month end you choose, and run the first week with you.
- Final backup import and count check
- Customer portal and autopay invitations
- On-site go-live support for larger fleets

Before you sign anything to replace TRUX

Ask every vendor, including AMCS, the same questions.

Will you import directly from our TRUX backup, or do we export spreadsheets?
How many sandbox rounds with our own data come before go-live?
Are dispatch, driver app, billing, portal and payments one product or separate contracts?
Who answers the phone after go-live, and how fast?
What is the written support end date for our current TRUX version?
Which costs are one-time and which grow with trucks or users?
