Dispatch and routing decide how many jobs a truck can do
Body:
A junk removal day has moving parts most software ignores — truck capacity, crew assignments, dump runs, and time windows.
Get the dispatch and the routing right, and the same trucks and crews simply do more work.
Get it wrong, and the day leaks hours nobody can ever get back.
Losing control of the day at 8am
Body:
Without a dispatch board, the morning is a scramble. Who's on which job? Who has the right truck for the load? Which crew is closest to the next stop?
Those questions get answered by texts, calls, and guesses. When something breaks, the owner gets the angry customer call.
And the trucks themselves zig-zag across town — burning fuel and time that two more jobs could have filled.
Manual dispatch and routing leak time and money every day

Route optimization that plans around dump runs (Growth plan)
*Major section. Route optimization is a Growth-plan feature — stated plainly.*
Body:
Scheduling the day is one thing. Sequencing it efficiently is another.
On the Growth plan, route optimization builds efficient routes using truck capacity, time windows, dump facilities, zones, crew size, and job duration. It plans around the dump trip — not as an afterthought.
What route optimization does:
- Plan tomorrow. Build the next day's routes ahead of time, instead of scrambling at 7am.
- Insert new jobs. Absorb same-day and after-hours bookings into existing routes with minimal disruption.
- Replan when the day shifts. When a job runs long or a truck runs late, routes can be replanned to hold efficiency.
- Lock finalized routes. Give drivers a stable plan once the day is set.
Why it matters:
Tighter routing means more jobs per truck per day — one of the highest-leverage margin improvements available without buying another truck.
