# How to remove office access from a driver in Dumpster Controls

If a driver no longer needs the office panel, you can take the office role away and keep them as a driver. Nothing is deleted: their login, history and driver profile stay as they are.

## Before you start

- The Admin role.
- The person is a driver who has an office role (their row in the Drivers list shows the role chip).

1. ## Open the Drivers page
  In the sidebar, click "Drivers" and find the person. Their row shows the office role chip, for example "Admin".
2. ## Open the row menu
  Click the "⋯" button at the end of their row and choose "Remove office access".
3. ## Confirm
  The window asks "Remove office access from <name>?" and explains that they lose the office panel and keep the driver app with the same email and password. Click "Remove access".

## What happens next

- A message confirms "<name> no longer has office access. The driver app stays." and the role chip disappears from their row.
- On their next login they go straight to the driver app. You can give office access again at any time from the same menu.
- Every change is recorded with who made it and when.

## Troubleshooting

### I do not see "Remove office access" on my own row.

You cannot remove your own office access. Ask another admin to do it.

### I get "The company owner keeps office access."

The account owner is protected and always keeps office access.

### I want to remove the person completely, not just the office access.

Use "Delete" in the same row menu instead. That deactivates the person and removes their login; see "How to remove a team member".

## 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.
