About Dumpster Controls
Dumpster Controls is enterprise-grade software for dumpster rental and junk removal companies, and it is free to use. It is not a side project or a solo app: it is built by a professional engineering group that has been delivering large-scale, mission-critical software for years, led by a founder who spent four years running roll-off trucks himself.
This page states, in one place and in plain language, exactly who is behind the product: the brand, the legal entity, the international group it belongs to, the founder and the team. Every claim here is checkable.
The company
The Dumpster Controls brand is owned and operated by Prime Systems and Controls LLC, a Florida company founded in 2020, which is also the entity listed as the app publisher on the App Store and Google Play. The company is part of the NexaForge group, an international software development organization that designs, builds and operates large-scale software products for demanding environments.
That lineage is the reason the platform behaves the way it does. Dumpster Controls was engineered by people whose day job for the last two decades has been keeping complex, mission-critical systems running: real architecture, real security practices, real uptime discipline. The same standards that apply to enterprise systems apply here, on a product that a two-truck operator can open and use in the same afternoon.
Development started inside the group in 2020 and the platform went into production with real hauling companies in 2023. It runs today across the United States and Canada.
The founder: an IT executive who also ran the trucks

Talk to the founder: daniel@dumpstercontrols.io (partnerships, press and investors welcome; Daniel reads every email)
Daniel is a technology executive with more than 20 years of experience in enterprise IT, running complex and business-critical environments where downtime is not an option. His career spans IT infrastructure and systems engineering, networking, cybersecurity, cloud and virtualization, databases, monitoring and automation, across Linux and Windows estates, VMware, AWS and Microsoft Azure, with certifications and training from Microsoft, Cisco, CompTIA, Linux, AWS, Azure, ITIL and information security. He has led technology projects and multidisciplinary teams, combining hands-on engineering with project management, architecture and business leadership. He is also a partner in the NexaForge international software group.
What makes his profile unusual in this industry is the second half of it. Daniel spent four years operating a roll-off dumpster business. He has dispatched trucks, managed container inventory, scheduled deliveries, swaps and pickups, dealt with landfills and tipping fees, routed drivers, chased payments, handled customer calls and fought the fraud and disputes that come with taking cards online.
Most software for this industry is written by people who have only read about the work, or by operators without an engineering organization behind them. Dumpster Controls comes from both sides at once: someone who has done the job, backed by a software group that builds systems at scale. That is why the product covers what actually hurts in a hauling operation instead of what looks good in a demo.
After moving to the United States in 2020, Daniel's professional record in information technology also became part of his employment-based U.S. immigration process, which led to permanent residency. Today he leads the technology vision and product direction of Dumpster Controls.
How it is built
Dumpster Controls is built by a senior engineering team inside the NexaForge group, working with the practices the group applies to its other software: role-based access control, row-level data isolation per company, automated backups, card data handled exclusively by Stripe, signed mobile releases, and an internal changelog entry for every single production change. Support answers in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
We would rather be judged by output than by headcount, so the next section lists what exists and can be inspected from outside the company.
What we have actually built
Rather than adjectives, here is what exists and can be inspected from outside the company:
- A complete operating platform, free with no volume limit. Dispatch, online booking, driver apps, container inventory, invoicing, payments, finance and reporting, with no per-truck pricing and no feature paywall. See the full pricing page.
- An open database of 2,911 U.S. landfills, published under CC BY 4.0, free for anyone to download and check, and wired directly into dispatch and per-order cost calculations: U.S. Landfill Finder.
- Tresha, an AI assistant built into the product, by text and by voice, that answers with the company's real operational data and can walk a user through any feature: how Tresha works.
- A marketplace between hauling companies, the Dumpster Network Hub, where operators pass overflow work to each other instead of turning it down: how the Hub works.
- A public company directory that sends real customers to real haulers, free to be listed: the directory.
- 275 step-by-step guides covering every module of the product, written from the shipped software rather than from marketing copy: Help Center.
- Native apps for iOS and Android published by the same legal entity, plus a web platform that most offices use daily.
How the company makes money
The software is free, permanently, at any volume and any fleet size. Revenue comes from four places, none of which is charging a hauler to run their business:
- A share of the card-processing fee, and only when a company chooses to collect payments online through the platform. Cash and check cost nothing.
- The optional Unlimited plan ($169/month), which lowers that processing rate and makes the company a Sponsored listing in our public directory, placed in front of customers searching nearby, which sends more booking requests their way. It requires a claimed directory page.
- Equipment partners who advertise trucks, containers and gear in the Fleet Upgrades store inside the app, where operators are already shopping for their next unit.
- Sponsorships on directory pages and other high-traffic pages of the site.
One thing we explicitly do not charge for: the Dumpster Network Hub marketplace has no listing fee, no subscription and no percentage cut, and the hauler who completes a job receives the full asking amount. There is also no per-order fee, no per-truck fee, no setup fee and no contract. Stating all of this plainly matters: a business model nobody can explain is a business model nobody should trust.
