How to update your personal profile in Dumpster Controls

The "My Profile" tab manages your personal information and preferences: name, photo, phone, job title, timezone, and language.

## Open the Profile tab
In the Account Center, click "Profile". The header reads "My Profile" with the subtitle "Manage your personal information and preferences." Your photo, name, and role badge sit at the top.
## Change your photo
Click the camera button on your avatar and pick an image. JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 2MB. A confirmation shows "Photo updated" when it is saved.
## Fill in your details
Edit "Full Name", "Phone" (formatted automatically as a US number), and "Job Title" (placeholder "e.g. Owner, Manager"). The "Email" field is read-only: "Email is used as your login and cannot be changed here."
## Set timezone and language
Pick your "Timezone" (Eastern, Central, Mountain, or Pacific) and your "Language". The language helper explains: "This changes the language across your entire account." Language applies instantly, and a toast confirms "Language updated".
## Save
Click "Save Changes". A toast confirms "Profile updated" with "Your profile changes have been saved."

What happens next

Your preferred language is also used for notifications the platform sends you.
The "Change Password" button on this tab jumps straight to the Security tab.

Troubleshooting

My photo upload fails with "File too large".

The maximum file size is 2MB. Resize or compress the image and try again.

I need to change my login email.

Email cannot be changed from this screen because it is your login. Open a ticket in the "Support Center" tab and the team will help.

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.
