How to open and navigate the Account Center in Dumpster Controls

Every account, company, billing, and security setting lives in one screen called the Account Center. Learn how its groups are organized so you always know where to look.

## Open the Account Center
Open your account menu in the app header and go to your account settings. The Account Center opens on the "Profile" tab by default.
## Read the groups
On desktop, the left navigation under the "Account Center" title is split into labeled groups: "Account", "Billing", "Payments", "Marketplace", "Settings", "Engage", "Security", and "Danger".
## Know what each tab holds
"Profile" and "Company" hold personal and business details, "Team and Permissions" manages your staff, "Billing and Plan" and "Payment Methods" handle your subscription, "Configure Payouts" connects Stripe so you can get paid, "Dumpster HUB Marketplace" manages your HUB participation, "Notifications" and "Appearance" are your preferences, "Referrals" and "Support Center" connect you with other haulers and with our team, "Security" protects your login, and "Cancel Subscription" (shown in red) ends a paid plan.
## Use it on the phone
On mobile, the tabs appear as a horizontal bar pinned to the bottom of the screen. Scroll it sideways and tap any tab to switch.

What happens next

The tab you are on is kept in the page address, so you can bookmark or share a direct link to a specific tab.
Admins and owners see one extra tab, "Resource Usage", in the Billing group.

Troubleshooting

I do not see the "Resource Usage" tab.

It only appears for admin and owner roles. Other team members do not see it.

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.
