# How to open the full level ladder in Dumpster Controls

The "Company levels" dialog lists all 12 levels with their unlock thresholds, your progress bar, and the money milestones track.

1. ## Open the dialog
  On the dashboard, click your level pill. The "Company levels" dialog opens.
2. ## Know the ladder
  The 12 levels and their real-order thresholds are: "First Order" at 1, "Rolling" at 10, "On the Road" at 20, "Hauler" at 30, "Heavy Hauler" at 40, "Silver Company" at 50, "Super Dumpster Company" at 100, "Gold Company" at 200, "Diamond Company" at 300, "Top Player" at 500, "Legend" at 750, and "Hall of Fame" at 1,000.
3. ## Read each row
  Unlocked levels show a green check with "Unlocked on {date}" (or simply "Unlocked" when the date is not recorded). Locked levels appear dimmed with a lock icon and the note "Complete {count} orders to unlock".
4. ## Spot your current level
  Your current level row is highlighted with a ring and carries a progress bar plus the caption "{count} orders to go for {name}", for example "8 orders to go for On the Road".
5. ## Check the money milestones
  Below the ladder, the "Money milestones" section tracks payments received through the app: "First payment received through the app", then "$10k received through the app", "$50k received through the app", and "$100k received through the app", each with a check when earned or a lock while pending.

## What happens next

- Level names never change with your app language; they are product names shared by every company.
- Close the dialog any time; your progress keeps counting in the background.

## Troubleshooting

### A level I earned long ago shows "Unlocked" without a date.

Levels credited retroactively (for example after a big import) are recorded without the original date. The green check still confirms it is yours.

## 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.
