Before you send a truck: Status unclear for roll-offs: the old City of Hopkinsville municipal landfill is in post-closure and its CDD unit is closed, but the state still lists an active city-owned residual landfill permit at this address that reported waste received in 2025 and 2026. It is not listed as a public MSW landfill: call the city before hauling. Hopkinsville Solid Waste Enterprise (city utility, 5663 Mt Zoar-Latham Rd, 270-887-6245) runs collection and roll-offs for the city. Its site says contractors are responsible for their own disposal and must hold a city business license. It publishes no landfill gate rates or public drop-off rules. Nearest landfills active and receiving waste in 2026 per the state: Hopkins Co Regional Landfill - Bituminous Resources Inc in White Plains (about 16 mi) and Republic Services of KY LLC - Ohio Co Landfill Inc in Beaver Dam (about 45 mi).

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.
