# How to edit an order's delivery details in Dumpster Controls

Wrong address, wrong size, wrong can number, wrong dates: all fixable from the order's "Delivery Information" card without recreating anything.

1. ## Open the editor
  Expand the order in Order History and click "Edit" on the "Delivery Information" card. (The same fields are editable in the Operations drawers.)
2. ## Fix the address
  The "Address" field has autocomplete; "City", "State", and "Zip" fill in when you pick a suggestion and stay editable.
3. ## Fix size and debris
  "Dumpster Size" lists your active sizes. "Debris Type" offers "Household", "Construction", "Yard Waste", "Concrete / Heavy", "Roofing", and "Mixed".
4. ## Rebind the "Dumpster Number"
  The unit dropdown ("Select dumpster unit") shows every unit of that size, marking the bound one "(current)" and blocking units "(in use by another order)". Choosing a different unit releases the old one back to available and binds the new one to this order. This is an admin override for correcting the linked can.
5. ## Adjust the dates and save
  Change "Delivery Date" and "Pickup Date" if needed, then click "Save". A toast confirms "Saved" with "Delivery information updated."

## What happens next

- Active dispatch tasks for the order sync the new unit label automatically, so the driver sees the corrected can number.
- The changes propagate to Order History, Operations, and Dispatch immediately.

## Troubleshooting

### The unit I need is disabled.

It is bound to another active order ("in use by another order"). Free it there first, or pick another unit.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Dumpster Controls really free?

Yes. 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. Step-by-step guides are at dumpstercontrols.io/help.
