A black bin takes four minutes, so it only pays at a dozen on one road. Sell where the van already goes, and take the card at the booking.
Online booking
They pick the afternoon after collection, add the recycling bin and the caddy, and pay by card as they book. A four-minute job never becomes an invoice.
Learn moreSmart scheduling
Set your hours to the afternoons the lorry has already been down each road, and the page cannot offer a Tuesday on a Wednesday round.
Learn moreThe lorry comes Tuesday, so the clean is Tuesday afternoon. Set the hours that way once and the page never offers the wrong half of the week.
Roads collected on a Tuesday only open on a Tuesday, so nobody books you onto a street where the bins are still full to the lid.
A side gate bolted or a bin left in the garden moves that stop to the next pass, and the other eleven stay where they were.
Dragging work around the week costs nothing. It is not a Pro feature and it never has been.
A sign-up on a road you are already booked onto is worth having. One well away from it is four minutes of work behind twenty of driving.
Open times are scored on the travel in and out of the gap, so the afternoon you are already on that road comes up first.
When number 14 books the Wednesday, number 22 is offered the Wednesday as well, and one trip covers the pair of them.
Ranking picks where a new job goes in. It never reorders the stops already on the list, so the round you set off with is the round you do.
Claim the postcodes the round covers. An address outside them hears so at the first step, rather than once you have taken the money.
Claim real areas off the map rather than drawing a circle, so the edge of the round sits where you say it sits.
North of the town and south of it can be separate areas with their own driver, and a booking falls to whoever does that road.
Inside your area the rate is the rate. Bookables never quietly adds anything for a longer drive.
Past your coverage. Decline politely, or make an exception.
Out of area is settled on the first screen, before a time is even offered. Nobody is rung back the next morning to be talked out of a booking.
A bin round is the same houses forever. Every clean, every extra bin and every payment stacks up on the address, so a regular is a record and not a memory.
Someone two areas over wants their bins done and there is nothing free near them. The enquiry arrives regardless, with the road on it.
Their road and their bin count sit in your inbox, so when four more sign up on the same street you know it is worth adding.
Nobody books an afternoon you were never free for, so there is no ringing back to walk one in the following morning.
Reply from the phone on the sofa, and the thread stays on the address for when they do book properly.
Six of us on the same road in Sale want ours done every second week. Do you get out this way at all?
A bin clean costs more to chase than it earns. Take the card as they book, or tick the cash and the transfer off by hand for nothing.
Mark it paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and it always will.
They pay the full amount online as they book, so there is no debt to remember and nothing left under a bin lid in an envelope.
They get the receipt without you writing one out on the tailgate at the end of the road.
Built for your trade
Black bin, recycling and the garden bin, done in the afternoon once the lorry has been down and the bins are back on the pavement empty.
One neighbour books and three more follow. Because the slots offered favour the day you are already on that road, four bookings become one stop.
Trade bins that smell for a living, done before the doors open. A bigger bin, a bigger price, and a business that pays by card first time.
A dozen bins in one store, quoted to the managing agent rather than the tenants, and done in a single stop on a standing arrangement.
A brown bin that has had a fortnight of clippings sat in it through August. One clean at a set price with no expectation of coming back.
The call that cannot wait a fortnight. Take it as a one-off on the next afternoon you are near them, priced the same as the round.
Someone moving out, or a bin the council swapped that turned up filthy. A single booking at a set price, paid online before you set off.
Kitchen and changing room bins done in the holidays or after a fixture, booked by whoever is on the committee and paid by the club.
A bay is worth ten households, and the people who sign for one take a week to answer. Sent, opened and accepted sit in one list, so the bay that went quiet is the one you ring.
How many bins, which afternoon, and what it came to. Everything needed at an address that takes four minutes and no conversation.
The chippy, the barber and the newsagent, bins of three sizes, all done before they open. One quote with a line each and a total.
The chippy with two trade bins and the barber with one are separate lines, so nobody argues about who is carrying whom.
A parade of eighteen bins was never a fifteen-minute stop, and the booking holds the longer slot rather than pretending.
The quote goes from the phone before you have pulled away, which is usually before the other two have rung back.
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly on the same quote, with a deodorise on the trade bins. Whoever runs the parade ticks the one they want and the total moves with them. Priced options come with Pro.
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
As you grow with us you can go Pro.
One app for the whole job
Claim the areas your round covers and an address outside them is turned away at the first step of the booking page, rather than once it is on the list. Until areas are claimed everywhere is open, so it is worth doing before the link goes out.
Availability is set per area, so the roads collected on a Tuesday can only be booked for Tuesday afternoon and the ones done on a Thursday for Thursday. Nobody is offered a slot where the bins are still full.
They are priced options on the one service, so the customer ticks what they have out and the total moves with them. Priced options come with Pro.
It does not. A recurring booking holds the same spot every week, fortnight or month until you end it, and it is free on any plan. Skip one while they are away and the arrangement carries on regardless.
No. Cash and a bank transfer you tick off by hand cost nothing on any plan. Taking the card online at the booking comes with Pro, which on a job this size tends to be the difference between paid and chased.
Compare online and phone bookings for service businesses, with a practical way to handle standard jobs, tricky enquiries and customers who prefer a call.
