    How to set up junk removal load pricing in Dumpster Controls

    The "Junk Removal Pricing" page ("Configure load-based pricing for junk removal jobs") is the price table behind every junk job, in the app and on your public checkout.

    Before you start

    • Open it with the "Load Pricing" button on the Junk Removal list.
    1. 1

      Price each fraction

      You get one card per fraction: "1/4 Load", "2/4 Load", "3/4 Load", and "Full Load". Type the "Base Price" on each card. Changes save automatically; a small "Saved" check confirms each write.

    2. 2

      Add labor and notes

      Each card also takes "Labor (min)", the included labor minutes, and "Notes". On the public checkout, a fraction's note replaces the default description customers see under that load size.

    3. 3

      Pick a default

      The switch on a card marks that fraction as "Default". Only one fraction holds it at a time; setting a new default clears the previous one.

    4. 4

      Tune "Global Settings"

      "Allow manual override" ("Let operators override prices") and "Volume reference (yards)" ("Show yd³ labels per fraction") live in the sidebar. Turning on the volume reference reveals "Container capacity (yd³)"; each fraction card then shows its approximate cubic yards based on that capacity.

    5. 5

      Or price from inside a job

      If you pick a "Load Size" with no price while creating a job, a warning appears: "No pricing configured for this load size." with a "Configure Pricing" button that opens the same price table in a modal, so you can fix it without leaving the form.

    What happens next

    • New jobs auto-fill their price from this table when you pick a load size.
    • Only fractions with an active base price above zero are offered on your public junk checkout. Pricing at least one fraction is also what makes the "Junk Removal" button appear on your hosted booking page.

    Troubleshooting

    A fraction I priced does not show online.

    Check the price is greater than zero. Zero-priced or inactive fractions are excluded from the public checkout.
