The load changes stop by stop.
Gallons, pounds, cubic yards, or container slots matter as much as the addresses.
Waste collection route software
Collection routes built for trucks that fill up.
Plan recurring pickups and disposal returns around what the truck holds, with dispatch and service records connected.
- Month-to-month
- No setup fee
- No per-seat fees
How capacity works
Every stop adds to the load.
Plan the unload before the truck runs out of room, then start the next load with the return already accounted for.

The shape of your day
A collection route has to plan for the full truck.
The disposal run is part of the job.
A return to the facility changes the time available for the rest of the route.
The same accounts come around again.
Recurring schedules and completed-service records keep the next cycle connected.
From the office to the field
The route is only the beginning.
Keep the schedule, the service, and the record connected across your operation.
Recurring route scheduling
Set the cadence once. The route remembers.
A weekly can, a biweekly restaurant, a monthly yard — the cadence lives on the account, and every stop coming due lands on a route, on the right week.
- Service cadences per account — weekly through monthly, or your own rhythm
- Routes built from what's due, not re-drawn every Sunday night
- Overdue and unscheduled work in one queue
Capacity and multi-trip routing
Route the loads — not just the addresses.
Set what each truck holds — gallons, pounds, cubic yards, or container slots — and DynoRoute plans within those limits, with disposal and transfer returns built into the day.
- Fill limits per truck, routes that respect them
- Stops that would overload a truck get flagged, not silently overbooked
- Multi-trip days planned as one day — two loads, one shift
AI dispatch and agents
Approve a recommendation, not a puzzle.
The AI dispatcher matches each job to a truck and driver and states its confidence. Agents you configure watch the day behind it.
- Job-to-truck recommendations with confidence scores, in seconds
- Conflicts caught before the schedule commits
- Agents on your own triggers — missed-pickup follow-ups, expected-versus-actual checks
Driver app and proof of service
Any driver can run any route.
The route lives in the app — stop order, site notes, gate codes, which alley, which can — so a new driver runs it on day one, and proof comes back with him.
- Timestamped, geotagged photo proof at every stop
- Turn-by-turn through the driver's own navigation app
- Works offline, syncs back in range
More for your office and service records
Customer, site, and container records
Every account's story in one place.
Sites, cans, and containers live as records with the fields you define — custody, gate codes, service history — searchable by the whole company instead of remembered by one veteran.
- Custom fields and connected container records
- Photos, files, and visit history per site
- CSV and Excel customer imports
Billing and QuickBooks
The quantity gets entered once.
In most shops the same load gets keyed three times — at the stop, on the invoice, in QuickBooks. Here the number the driver records is the number on the invoice.
- Invoices created from finished stops, quantities carried over
- Recurring billing for subscription customers, cards on file with auto-pay
- Invoices and payments sync to QuickBooks
A connected workflow
The job moves forward. The record stays whole.
Schedule
Put each account's service cadence on the account itself, so every stop coming due lands on a route without anyone rebuilding the week.
Plan
Build the day around each truck's fill limit, with the disposal or transfer-station return placed where it costs the least drive time.
Run
Dispatch routes to drivers, watch the fleet live, and replan when a truck fills early or an emergency pickup lands.
Close out
Keep quantities, photos, exceptions, invoices, and account history connected — what the driver hauled is what the invoice says.

What is waste collection route software?
It plans, sequences, and tracks collection routes — which stops, which truck, what order, with live GPS, proof of service, and billing behind it. The part that separates tools built for collection from generic route planners is capacity: a collection route has to plan around what the truck holds and the disposal runs that empty it, not just the miles between stops.
How much does waste collection route software cost?
DynoRoute offers flat monthly plans with usage credits and no per-seat fees. Book a 30-minute intro call to discuss your routing needs and get a quote. Plans are month-to-month with no setup fee.
Is there free garbage truck routing software?
Free route planners sequence addresses, and for a single day of stops they work. They don't hold truck fill limits, recurring service cadences, disposal returns, or per-stop service records — so recurring collection work outgrows them at the first full truck or the first missed cycle. That's the honest line between free and paid here.
Is DynoRoute for municipal fleets?
DynoRoute is built for private operators — haulers and service companies that run their own trucks, customers, and billing. Municipal street-by-street collection is usually planned as arc routing with procurement-grade tooling, which is a different geometry and buying process. If you're a private fleet serving named accounts, you're in the right place.
How long until our routes run on it?
Days, not months. Import your customer list from CSV, set each truck's fill limits and each account's cadence, and DynoRoute builds the routes — there's no implementation project, no fee, and no hardware to install. Drivers run their routes on the phones they already carry, offline included.
What happens when a truck fills up early or the day changes?
The plan already carries a buffer and a planned disposal return, so a heavy day flexes instead of breaking. When something bigger changes — a truck down, an emergency pickup, a facility queue — the AI dispatcher replans around the live state of the fleet and shows the dispatcher its recommendation with a confidence score, before anything reaches a driver.
1 more questions
Do drivers need new hardware?
No. The driver app runs on the phones your drivers already carry, works offline and syncs when back in range, and hands turn-by-turn to the navigation app each driver already uses. There are no sensors, telematics contracts, or installs — capacity planning comes from your records and recorded actuals, not hardware.
