I'm half service tech and half logistics, because I'm not selling a job, I'm renting physical objects that have to be in the right place and pumped on a schedule. The day is a route: weekly cleans on construction sites, an event delivery, and a couple of swaps where a unit got too beat to keep in service. My truck holds only so much waste and freshwater, so the route is built around when I have to drive to the dump station, same as a septic truck. The recurring headache is inventory: I have forty units in the field, each one numbered, and construction crews move them around the site or load them onto a different truck without telling me, so I'm forever reconciling which unit is actually where. Events are the deadline jobs, ten units there by Friday noon and gone by Sunday night, because the venue starts charging me a day's rent the moment I'm late on pickup. At each stop I pump, rinse, drop a fresh blue deodorizer charge, restock paper, and note the unit number serviced. Billing follows the rental clock, not the visit, so I track delivery and pickup dates per unit. The whole business lives or dies on knowing where every unit is and when it's due.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a portable toilet service operator's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a portable toilet service operator — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
