Junk Removal
The junk removal software built for the truckload.
Cardo CRM quotes by volume, routes the day around dump runs, dispatches the crew, and collects payment the second the truck is loaded. It's junk removal software shaped around how hauling actually works, and you only pay for the modules you use.
You don't sell a service. You sell space on the truck.
A junk removal job is priced by how much of the truck it fills, and that number is a moving target — quoted over the phone from a rough description, then re-sized at the curb when the garage turns out to be packed to the rafters. Between pickups the crew has to hit the transfer station or the donation center, so the day is really a route, not a list. Generic software gives you a single fixed-price ticket with one address and no way to bump the load size on-site or weave a dump run into the route. So haulers end up quoting in their heads, routing by gut, and chasing the card after the junk is already gone.
Everything a haul needs, in one place.
Volume pricing, tight routes, and payment before the truck pulls away.
Volume-based quoting
Price by truckload tier — minimum, quarter, half, three-quarter, full. Quote fast over the phone or from a photo, with your own rates baked in.
On-site load adjustment
When the pile is bigger than described, the crew bumps the load size on their phone and the price updates before the customer signs. You bill what you actually hauled.
Multi-stop routing & dump runs
Build the day in route order and slot dump, recycling or donation runs where they fit, so the truck stops doubling back across town.
Crew dispatch & mobile app
Assign jobs to a truck and crew; they see the route, addresses, and access notes on their phone and mark each stop done as they go.
On-site payment (Square)
Collect a card the moment the truck is loaded, or take a deposit at booking. Tips and refunds run through the same Square integration.
Text reminders & two-way SMS
Confirm the window the day before and send an on-the-way text, so the customer is there and the junk is out. Replies land in one thread.
Only pay for what you use
A single truck and a five-truck operation shouldn't pay the same way.
Start with quoting, scheduling and reminders. Turn on multi-stop routing when your days get busy, the crew app when you want to retire the clipboard, Square payments when you want cards collected at the curb, and automated follow-ups when you want estimates to stop going cold. Each one is a module you switch on — not a feature locked behind a pricier tier or stacked per-truck seat fees.
Built by someone who runs trucks and crews every day.
Cardo CRM grew out of a working Alabama service company that runs 100+ jobs a month on this exact software — the multi-stop routing, the on-site price changes, the crew app, and the collect-on-the-spot flow were all built to solve real curbside problems before they were ever offered to anyone else. Junk removal runs on the same bones: volume pricing, tight routes, trucks in the field, and money collected on site. When the person who built your software has actually loaded a truck and chased a payment, the details tend to be right.

How is junk removal software different from generic field-service software?
+
Junk removal is priced by volume, not by a fixed service. You quote a quarter-truck, half-truck or full load — often sight-unseen over the phone, then adjusted on-site once the crew sees the pile. The day is a chain of pickups with dump or donation runs worked in between, and the price can change at the curb. Generic field tools assume one address and one fixed price, so they cannot handle a load that grows or a route that has to bend around a transfer station. Cardo CRM is built for volume pricing, multi-stop routes and on-site adjustments.
Can I quote by truckload volume and adjust on-site?
+
Yes. Set your pricing in volume tiers — minimum pickup, quarter, half, three-quarter and full truck — and quote fast over the phone or from a photo. When the crew arrives and the pile is bigger than described, they adjust the load size on their phone and the price updates before the customer signs, so what you bill matches what you actually hauled.
Does it handle multi-stop routes and dump runs?
+
Yes. Build a day of pickups in route order and slot dump, recycling or donation runs in where they fit, so the truck is not driving back across town between every job. The crew sees the whole route on their phone — the order of stops, addresses and access notes — and marks each one done as they go.
How do customers pay, and can the crew collect on-site?
+
Take a card on-site the moment the truck is loaded, right from the crew’s phone through Square, or collect a deposit when the job is booked. Tips and refunds run through the same integration. Payments are a module you switch on only if you want to collect cards in the field.
What if I also do dumpster rentals or commercial accounts?
+
The off-the-shelf Cardo CRM covers on-demand junk removal — quoting, routing, dispatch, reminders and payment. If you run dumpster-rental inventory, recurring commercial hauling contracts or weight-based landfill billing, that logic is a good candidate for a custom build, where we map your exact pricing and inventory and build around it.
