    How to set or change a landfill destination in Dumpster Controls

    Landfill runs start as "Location TBD". Choosing the landfill on the order plots the stop on the map and locks in the route.

    Before you start

    • The order has a landfill task (real or the auto-created preview) on a driver's route.
    1. 1

      Open the driver's route

      Click "View route" on the lane of the driver who will run the landfill.

    2. 2

      Find the landfill stop

      In the route list, the landfill stop shows a "Set landfill" link (or "Change landfill" if one is already chosen).

    3. 3

      Pick the landfill

      The "Landfill destination" dialog opens with your active landfills. Pick one and save.

    What happens next

    • The landfill stop gets a real pin on the map and the route redraws through it, with the brown landfill leg.
    • The choice is saved on the order, so the driver's app points at the same destination.
    • Nearby landfills are also plotted on the route map as reference markers you can click for their address.

    Troubleshooting

    The "Set landfill" link is missing.

    It only appears on landfill stops tied to an order. Special stops created by hand carry their own fixed address instead.
