# How to use Tresha by voice from the truck tablet

Tresha is the built-in assistant. From the tablet rail she opens already listening, so a driver can ask a question or finish a stop without typing.

## Before you start

- Microphone permission granted on the tablet.

1. ## Open Tresha from the rail
  The rail button opens the assistant already listening, so the first word is captured. On a phone it is in the menu.
2. ## Ask in your own language
  Tresha answers in English, Spanish and Portuguese. Ask what is next, where a customer is, or what the day looks like.
3. ## Ask her to complete a stop
  Tresha can complete deliveries, pickups and landfill runs. She shows a confirmation card first: nothing happens until you tap it, and the action runs under your own login.
4. ## Listen to the answer
  Answers can be spoken back, which is what you want with hands on the wheel. Audio works even with the device on silent.

## What happens next

- The action appears in the office immediately, attributed to you.
- Everything Tresha does is recorded in the audit trail.

## Troubleshooting

### Tresha does not hear me

Check the microphone permission in device settings. In a loud cab, hold the tablet closer or type the question instead.

### She asks me to confirm every time

By design. Anything that changes an order waits for a tap, so a misheard sentence can never complete the wrong stop.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Dumpster Controls really free?

Yes. The software is free: dispatch, online booking, the driver app, invoicing, the Tresha AI assistant and every other feature, with no monthly fee, no trial period and no credit card to sign up. The only cost on the free plan is optional card processing when a customer pays by card through the platform: 2.99% plus $3.99 per transaction on the free plan. An optional Unlimited plan at $169 per month lowers that to 2.99% plus $0.30. Prices as published on dumpstercontrols.io/pricing on 2026-09-23.

### Do you charge per driver, per truck or per order?

No. There is no per-driver, per-truck, per-user or per-order fee, and no order limit. A company with one truck and a company with twenty pay the same for the software: nothing.

### Is there a contract?

No. There is no contract, no minimum term and no setup fee. You create the account yourself, and on the free plan there is nothing to cancel because nothing is billed. The optional Unlimited plan is billed month to month.

### Which countries and languages are supported?

Dumpster Controls serves hauling companies in the United States and Canada. The app interface and the Tresha AI assistant are available in English, Spanish and Portuguese. The public pages, such as the blog, the help center and the landfill finder, are in English.

### How do I switch from another dumpster software?

Create a free account at dumpstercontrols.io/login, with no sales call and no credit card. Then import your customers from a CSV file using the template provided in the app; past orders can also be imported from a CSV. Container sizes and pricing are set up in Settings. The landfill database, with 1,750 active US and Canadian landfills as counted on 2026-10-01, is already loaded, so disposal sites do not need to be typed in. Step-by-step guides are at dumpstercontrols.io/help.
