How to create a junk removal job in Dumpster Controls

The "New Junk Job" page ("Create and schedule a new junk removal job") builds the job, the invoice, and the payment request in one pass.

1. 1

   Open the form

   Click "New Job" on the Operations junk tab or "New Junk Job" on the Junk Removal page.

2. 2

   Pick or create the customer

   Under "Customer Information", search with "Search customer name or company…" and pick a customer, or use "Create New Customer". Selecting a customer with a saved address pre-fills the job address.

3. 3

   Try a quick template

   The "1. Junk Job" section offers "Quick:" templates: "Curbside Pickup", "Garage Cleanout", and "Construction Debris". Each one presets the load size, crew size, and duration in one click.

4. 4

   Choose the "Load Size"

   Pick "1/4 Load", "2/4 Load", "3/4 Load", or "Full Load". The "Price ($)" fills in from your load pricing. Typing a different price flags it with "Manual override".

5. 5

   Set crew and duration

   "Crew Size" offers 1 to 3 people and "Est. Duration" offers 30, 60, 90, or 120 min. Both appear in the "Job Summary" and on the invoice line.

6. 6

   Enter the address and instructions

   Fill "ZIP / Postal Code" and the "Delivery Address" with autocomplete. "Driver Instructions" takes notes ("Add instructions (e.g. gate #, placement spot).") and "Photo" lets you attach a job-site picture for the crew.

7. 7

   Schedule and assign

   In "2. Schedule & Assignment", set the required "Job Date", an optional "Start Time" and "End Time" window, and optionally "Assign Driver" and "Assign Truck" right away.

8. 8

   Create it

   Check the "Job Summary" sidebar (load, crew, duration, payment, "Total") and click "Create Junk Job". An invoice preview opens for you to confirm recipients before sending; the toast "Junk Job created" confirms the save.
