My business is a fleet of steel boxes and a truck that can only carry one at a time, so the entire day is a swap-and-haul puzzle: drop an empty 20-yard at a roofing job, haul a full one to the landfill, come back with the empty, and slot the next delivery in between. The math that makes or breaks me is weight, because the landfill charges by the ton and a box full of shingles or busted concrete weighs three times what a garage cleanout does, so my flat quote needs a tonnage cap or I'm eating the overage. Every trip to the landfill comes back with a scale ticket, and that ticket has to land on the right customer or my billing falls apart and I can't tell clean concrete loads from mixed waste for the recycler. Placement is its own headache: a customer wants the can in front of the garage but there's a low wire, or it's an HOA that fines for street placement, or a tight driveway where I'll crack the concrete without plywood down. The slow killer is rental time, because a 30-yard sitting full at a customer's house for an extra two weeks is a container I can't rent to someone else. I run the route off the radio, chase the empties, and watch the clock on every can in the field.
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 roll-off dumpster 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 roll-off dumpster 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Found something out of date?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.
