Each job is sold as one of those fractions, carries it as a chip such as 1/2 Load everywhere the job appears, and takes an extra charge on site when the pile turns out bigger. Orders P&L then shows what each fraction earned after the landfill and the card fee; the page does not suggest what to charge, because it does not know your transfer station or your market. ## How load fraction pricing works in Dumpster Controls 1. **Fill the Load Pricing table.** On Operations, open the Junk Removal tab and click Load Pricing. Enter your price for each fraction of the truck. See [managing junk jobs from Operations](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/inventory/manage-junk-jobs-from-operations). 2. **Sell the job as a fraction.** New Job takes the customer, the address, the window and the fraction; the amount comes from the table. Tresha, by chat or voice, uses the same template prices and morning or afternoon windows. See [creating with Tresha](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/tresha/create-an-order-with-tresha). 3. **The fraction travels with the job.** The board shows a load fraction chip where a dumpster stop would show a size; the crew sees the same fraction on the phone; the Operations list shows a Load badge, Full or a fraction such as 2/4. See [dispatching junk removal jobs](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/dispatch/dispatch-junk-removal-jobs). 4. **Bill the difference on site.** When the garage holds a full load and a half was quoted, Charge Extra Fee adds the difference with a description and up to three photos, and collects by card on file, payment link, or as a line on the unpaid main invoice. See [charging an extra fee](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/invoicing-payments/charge-an-extra-fee). 5. **Put the landfill cost on the job.** The transfer station ticket is recorded as a cost on the job, or read from the ticket photo by Tresha on a landfill run. See [recording a landfill cost](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/finances/record-a-landfill-cost). 6. **Read the margin per fraction.** Orders P&L lists every junk job with Revenue, Fees, Costs, Profit and Margin, sortable by margin, so the fraction that loses money is a row you can point at. See [Orders P&L](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/finances/see-profit-per-order-in-orders-pl). Every step above is documented screen by screen in the manual: [How to manage junk removal jobs from Operations](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/inventory/manage-junk-jobs-from-operations). ![Where the load fraction shows up: the Operations page with the Junk Removal counter, each job's amount and status and a driver to assign](https://dumpstercontrols.io/screens/operations-mock.webp) *The fraction as the office sees it: the job, its amount and its status on Operations, before and after the site visit.* ## What you need Your prices per fraction A decision about your truck's capacity and your transfer station's rate.
