Every order keeps a typed photo gallery plus a dedicated landfill receipt slot, and the office can upload to both after the fact. 1. ## Open the "Photos" card Expand the order in Order History. The gallery groups photos by moment: "Before Delivery", "Delivered", "Before Pickup", "After Pickup", "Landfill Receipt", "Driver Instruction", and more. Click any photo to open the lightbox. 2. ## Upload a missing photo Use the upload action on the photo type you want to fill. A toast confirms "Photo uploaded successfully". Drivers' photos from the app land in the same gallery automatically. 3. ## Attach the "Landfill Receipt" On the "Landfill Information" card, use the receipt area to upload or replace the receipt image. A toast confirms "Landfill receipt attached". By default the receipt image itself is shown to your customer, as its own section on the invoice they open and on the invoice PDF. If you would rather keep receipts for your records only, turn off "Show landfill receipt to customers" in Account Center, Company: the receipt stays attached to the order and visible to your team either way. What you paid the landfill is never shown to customers in either case. 4. ## Check the evidence on charges Extra fees created with photos keep them as evidence; "View Details" on a charge shows the "Evidence" thumbnails sent to the customer. ## What happens next - The receipt also powers the overweight math: with a receipt and net weight on file, overweight alerts and invoice lines can reference it. - Photos appear in the operations drawers too, under "Photos" ("Photos taken throughout the order lifecycle"). ## Troubleshooting ### My upload fails. You must be signed in and the file must be an image. Retry with a smaller photo if the connection is slow. ## Related guides - [How to read an order's details in Dumpster Controls](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/orders/read-an-orders-details) - [How to handle an overweight order in Dumpster Controls](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/orders/handle-an-overweight-order) © 2026 Dumpster Controls.

The software is free: 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. An optional Unlimited plan at $169 per month lowers that to 2.99% plus $0.30. 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 Unlimited 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.
