Put each job on a suitable truck

Jobs arrive from online bookings, phone bookings, New Job and recurring series. Assign the work from the board.

  1. Choose the job

    Take an Unassigned card or open a booked job that needs a truck.

  2. Place it on a truck

    Drag the card onto a truck lane, or between two stops to choose its order.

  3. Check the fit

    Heavy items need a suitable truck and crew. Rental jobs need a truck that can carry that container size.

  4. Tell the crew

    The job saves as Scheduled and the crew gets a New Job alert. Jobs outside the truck's zone show a warning.

When a job runs long, update the next customer

When a job runs long or the dump is backed up, preview a new truck, day or arrival window. Choose which customers and crews to notify.

FAQ

Will ScaleYourJunk assign trucks for me?

Growth's Optimize All assigns and orders junk jobs using truck space, crew hours and arrival windows. Starter uses manual dispatch. Automatic route planning does not cover dumpster deliveries, pickups or swaps.

Can junk and dumpster work share one board?

Yes. Junk pickups and dumpster jobs share the board and schedule. Delivery, Pickup and Swap tags help your office tell rental stops apart.

Is the customer told when I move a job?

On Schedule, choose Notify customer about the updated schedule before confirming the move. Updates can go by email, text or both. You can also notify the affected crew.

Can I see where my trucks are?

On Growth, truck locations come from drivers' phones while they are clocked in. Check the time of the latest reported position.

How do drivers hear about changes?

Drivers receive alerts for new and moved jobs. Route updates ask them to tap Acknowledge, and the board shows Awaiting route ack until they do. Growth also includes Dispatch Chat.

What is junk removal dispatch software?

It helps your office put booked jobs on trucks and manage the day's schedule. ScaleYourJunk shows assigned and unassigned work, crew status and schedule changes on one board.

Can I dispatch roll-off deliveries, pickups and swaps?

Yes. Rental jobs appear on the same board with their own tags. Assign them to a container truck that can carry the booked size, and place their stops from the board.
