Reservety alternative, 2026

# The Reservety alternative at $0/month

Dumpster Controls is a Reservety alternative built only for dumpster rental and junk removal, at $0 per month with no order limit and no feature paywall: dispatch with swaps and landfill runs, online booking, a native iOS and Android driver app with Truck Tablet Mode and live GPS, Stripe invoicing, QuickBooks Online sync, a public API, the Dumpster Net Hub marketplace, a 2,916-landfill database and Tresha, an AI assistant you can run by voice. Reservety is a general rental platform with 35+ rental categories, of which dumpster rental is one, priced at "Starter $59 /mo" and "Professional $99 /mo" (their pricing page, checked 2026-09-24).

## What Reservety costs

Reservety publishes four plans on its pricing page, checked 2026-09-24: "Starter $59 /mo" (2 staff accounts, concierge setup in 3-5 days), "Professional $99 /mo" (15 staff accounts, QuickBooks integration, POS, priority setup in 24-48 hours), "Hibernation $15/mo" for the off-season and "Operations From $179/month, scoped per business". There is a 14-day free trial with no card, month-to-month billing, "0% Commission Fees", and card processors charge their standard rate "(~2.9%)". Xero is a "$29/month" add-on. Reservety Inc. was founded in 2019 in Bacău, Romania, and reports about 90% of its 500+ customers in the United States. Capterra and Software Advice still show older plan names and prices ($28, $78, $188) that no longer match their site.

Dumpster Controls takes the opposite approach: the software is free, with unlimited orders and unlimited users, and the only cost is card processing when a customer pays by card, 2.99% + $3.99 per transaction on the free plan, or 2.99% + $0.30 on the optional $169/month Unlimited plan. Pay by cash, check or any other method and there is no fee at all.

## Why haulers switch from Reservety

### Built for dumpsters, not adapted from general rental

Reservety serves 35+ rental categories, from party rental to kayaks, with a dumpster page among them. Dumpster Controls was built for roll-off and junk removal: swaps as linked tasks, landfill runs with receipt reading, overweight fees, containers by serial number, junk jobs with on-site quoting.

### Self-serve in a minute, with unlimited staff

Reservety's own facts page says "Not self-serve onboarding": you send a launch kit and their team builds the site in 3-5 business days, and staff accounts are capped at 2 (Starter) or 15 (Professional). Dumpster Controls is self-serve and every role is unlimited, at card processing only when a customer pays by card: 2.99% + $3.99 per transaction on the free plan, or 2.99% + $0.30 on the optional $169/month Unlimited plan.

### A driver app in the stores, with live GPS

Reservety's driver app "Runs on Any phone"; no App Store or Google Play listing was found on 2026-09-24, and live GPS tracking was not found on their site as of the same date. Dumpster Controls ships a native iOS and Android app with Truck Tablet Mode and shows each driver's live position from the phone.

### $0 instead of $59 to $99 a month

That is $708 to $1,188 a year at their published plans. Dumpster Controls costs $0, and QuickBooks Online sync is free rather than reserved for the $99 tier.

## When Reservety is the better choice

A comparison where we win every line is advertising, and nobody should trust it. These are the cases, taken from what Reservety publishes, where their product is the right call.

### You rent more than dumpsters

If the same business rents trailers, equipment or party gear alongside containers, Reservety gives one storefront, one calendar and one checkout for all of it. Dumpster Controls covers dumpsters and junk removal only.

### You want the website built for you

Every Reservety plan includes a concierge-built storefront delivered in 3-5 business days, 24-48 hours on Professional. Dumpster Controls has a free website builder, but you set it up yourself.

### Your business is seasonal

Reservety's "Hibernation $15/mo" plan keeps the account alive in the off-season instead of cancelling. Dumpster Controls has no need for it, since the free plan costs nothing when idle, but if you are comparing paid platforms it is a fair point in their favor.

### You need Square, Clover, PayPal or Authorize.net, or you sell on Shopify, WooCommerce or Wix

Reservety publishes all of those processors and integrations. Dumpster Controls runs payments on Stripe only.

**How we make money:** only when you opt in, and the numbers are public. The software is 100% free with unlimited orders and no per-order software fee. If you choose to collect a customer’s card payment through Dumpster Controls, the processing fee is 2.99% + $3.99 per card transaction on the free plan, or 2.99% + $0.30 (the standard Stripe rate) on the optional $169/month Unlimited plan. Take payment by cash, check, Zelle or any other way and you pay nothing at all. Beyond that, our revenue comes from the optional Unlimited plan and from equipment partners and sponsors advertising in the app and on our public directory; our marketplace, the Dumpster Net Hub, charges zero marketplace fees. **Run your own business your way and you never pay to use the software.** It’s the only model that lets a 1-truck owner-operator run on the same software as a 50-truck fleet.
