How to rate and review a landfill in Dumpster Controls

Ratings are the community's radar for slow scales, surprise fees, and great crews. You can rate in one tap from the list or write a full review from the details.

## Quick-rate from the card
Cards you have not rated yet show an empty star row with the hint "Tap to rate". Tap a star (1 to 5) and your rating is saved instantly. The card then shows your stars labeled "your rating" next to the community average and review count.
## Or write a full review
Open "Details" and click "Leave a Review". Pick your stars, then optionally add text in the box "Share your experience (optional, max 500 chars)". A counter tracks your 500-character limit.
## Submit
Click "Submit". A toast confirms "Review submitted". Your rating and text become public to the hauler community, updating the landfill's average and count.

What happens next

One rating per person per landfill: coming back later shows "You've already reviewed this landfill."
Drivers can also rate landfills right after a dump from the driver app.

Troubleshooting

The stars on a "Private" landfill do not react.

Private landfills cannot be rated until the team promotes them to the public catalog.

The "Submit" button is disabled.

A star rating is required; the text is optional. Pick at least one star.

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 2026-10-01, is already loaded, so disposal sites do not need to be typed in. Step-by-step guides are at dumpstercontrols.io/help.
