Tresha AI Assistant · updated 2026-08-08
How to open Tresha AI anywhere in Dumpster Controls
Tresha is one tap away on every screen of the app. Learn every place she lives and what the chat panel shows when it opens.
Before you start
- A signed-in Dumpster Controls account. Tresha is not available in the vendor portal.
- ## Use the header button
In the app header, click the sparkles icon labeled "Tresha AI". The chat panel slides in from the right. - ## Or use the floating button
On desktop and larger screens, a round floating button with Tresha's animated orb sits near the bottom right corner of every page. Click it to open the chat. On narrow phone screens this floating button is hidden; use the header button instead. - ## Or use the footer link
The app footer's product links include "Tresha AI" with a sparkles icon. Clicking it opens the same chat. - ## Drivers: use the menu
In the driver app, open the account menu and tap "Ask Tresha". - ## Read the panel header
The header shows Tresha's orb avatar with a green online dot, the title "Tresha AI", and the subtitle "Your Dumpster Controls concierge". Next to it sit the globe language selector, an expand button that switches the panel to full screen and back, and the X to close.
What happens next
- The first time you open the chat, Tresha greets you: "Hi, I'm Tresha 👋 Your operations copilot. Ask me about today's deliveries, overdue pickups, revenue or invoices. Or tap a suggestion below to start." Drivers get a version about their own deliveries and pickups.
- Your conversation is saved on this device for your user, so closing the panel and reopening it later resumes where you left off.
Troubleshooting
I cannot find Tresha in the vendor portal.
Tresha is not offered on vendor accounts. She is available in the company app and in the driver app.

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.
