In Dumpster Controls, customer management for a junk removal business is the Customers page: one record per person or company holding contact details, the customer type, every junk job and dumpster order, the invoices, the photos, the notes and a lifetime value. It is shared with dispatch, the crew app and billing, and it is free for any fleet size with no contact limit. A general CRM stores names and deals; this record knows what a half load is and whether the customer paid for it.

## How customer management works in Dumpster Controls

1. **Create the customer, or let the first job create it.** New Customer asks for the type first: Residential, Contractor or Broker, and the form shows the fields that type needs, from gate code and preferred contact to license number, net terms and PO required. See [picking the right customer type](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/pick-the-right-customer-type).
2. **Bring in the list you already have.** The CSV importer ships a template, validates each row and reports Imported, Duplicates and Failed. With QuickBooks connected, one click imports your active QuickBooks customers. See [importing customers from a CSV](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/import-customers-from-a-csv).
3. **Read the row.** The table shows type, company, phone, Lifetime Value, order count and Active or Inactive status, with search, filters and sorting. See [search, filter and sort](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/search-filter-and-sort-customers).
4. **Open the profile.** Clicking a row opens a drawer with six tabs: Overview, Details, Orders, Invoices, Estimates and Activity. Orders lists each job with Contracted, Expenses and P&L; Activity is the timeline of every order event, newest first. See [opening a customer profile](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/open-a-customer-profile).
5. **Act from the profile.** Send Invoice shows a red counter with the open invoices, Call dials the number on file, and the Transactional notifications switch silences status texts for a contractor with ten jobs running while invoices still go out. See [controlling notifications per customer](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/control-transactional-notifications).

Every step above is documented screen by screen in the manual: [How to open and read the Customers page](https://dumpstercontrols.io/help/customers/open-the-customers-page).

Your customer list

In a spreadsheet or in QuickBooks Online.

An API key, optionally
