Operating costs and buying tradeoffs
Per-user fees are the silent budget killer. Every new hire increases your software cost on Jobber ($29/user) and Workiz ($46–$65/user). A 10-person crew on Jobber Core pays $290/month in user fees alone — that's $3,480/year just for login access. ScaleYourJunk charges flat at $149 or $299/month. Your 10th employee costs $0 more than your 3rd. Over 3 years, a growing junk removal company saves $6,000–$12,000 on ScaleYourJunk versus per-user platforms.

Questions this resource should answer.
Honest answers. If your question isn't here, ask us directly.
ScaleYourJunk uses a progressive web app that opens in your phone's browser with app-like speed and functionality. No download required — works on iPhone and Android instantly. Drivers bookmark the portal to their home screen and it behaves like a native app. The advantage is zero app store updates, no version conflicts across devices, and no IT management for crew phones. It loads in under 3 seconds on a standard LTE connection.
ScaleYourJunk is a focused platform built specifically for junk removal with load-based pricing, dump fee tracking, and load-based booking included on both public plans; capacity-aware dispatch included on Starter and Growth. Generic FSM apps like Jobber, Workiz, and Housecall Pro serve plumbers, electricians, and cleaners — they lack the core workflows that junk removal operators use daily. If you haul items by the truck load and track dump fees per job, you need junk-specific software.
Jobber Core costs $149/mo base plus $29 per additional user. For a 5-person crew, that's $49 + (4 × $29) = $165/month. Jobber Connect with 5 users is $245/month. Jobber Grow with 5 users is $365/month. These are real monthly costs — not the advertised base price. By comparison, ScaleYourJunk Growth with 5 users is $299/month flat with full driver portal, GPS tracking, dump fee logging, and QuickBooks direct data push included.
Yes. On the Starter plan at $149/month, drivers receive a daily email schedule with job details and addresses. On the Growth plan at $299/month, drivers access the full driver portal from their phone browser — including GPS-tracked routes, job details, dump fee logging with receipt photos, and load documentation with before/after images. No app download needed. Works on any smartphone. No per-user fees regardless of how many drivers you add.
No — using separate apps for dispatch, invoicing, CRM, and dump tracking creates data silos that cost you 4-8 hours per week in manual reconciliation. When your dispatch lives in Jobber, your accounting in QuickBooks, and your dump fees in a spreadsheet, nothing connects automatically. One platform that handles all core junk removal workflows eliminates double-entry, prevents data gaps, and gives you accurate per-job profitability without a Friday afternoon spreadsheet marathon.
