Dumpster Net Hub · updated 2026-08-08

How to read the Dumpster Net Hub marketplace in Dumpster Controls

The Hub page is organized into four tabs. Learn what each zone shows before you buy or sell your first order.

## Open the Hub
Click the "Dumpster HUB" card in the sidebar. The page header reads "Dumpster Network Hub" with the subtitle "B2B marketplace for verified network members", plus quick links to the "Manual" and the "Agreement".
## Check your authorization state
The header shows one of three states: a green "Hub Authorized" badge, an amber "Under Review" pill, or a "Request Authorization" button if you have not applied yet.
## Know the four tabs
"Marketplace" is the board of available orders from other companies. "My Listings" tracks orders you are selling. "My Accepted Orders" tracks orders you took from others. "Financial Overview" shows your Hub money.
## Read the stats row
The Marketplace tab opens with four counters: "Orders Available", "Within Radius", "Avg. Payout", and "New Today".
## Read a listing card
Each card shows the dumpster size, a waste-type badge, a status pill, the "Payout" amount with a "no hub fees" note, the city and state with the distance in miles, the delivery date, a "Verified Member" tag, and a countdown such as "Returns in 5h 12m". The countdown tooltip explains: "If no company accepts before this timer ends, the order returns to the original seller."
## Use the card actions
"View" opens the full detail drawer. "Take" starts the acceptance flow. If you are not authorized yet, the button reads "Access" and opens the authorization request instead. Your own listings show "Your listing" and cannot be taken by you.

What happens next

An empty board shows "No orders available within your radius" with the hint "Try adjusting your filters or expanding the distance range."
Listings are paginated below the grid so busy regions stay browsable.

Troubleshooting

Every listing shows "Access" instead of "Take".

Your company is not Hub authorized yet. Complete the "Request Authorization" flow first; browsing is open to everyone, taking orders is not.

Frequently asked questions

Is Dumpster Controls really free?

Yes. The entire app is free for any company at any fleet size: 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. The entire app is free; an optional $169 per month plan lowers that to 2.99% plus $0.30 and adds a Sponsored spotlight in the public company directory. 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 $169 lower card rate 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 2026-10-23, is already loaded, so disposal sites do not need to be typed in. Step-by-step guides are at dumpstercontrols.io/help.
