Washington has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $765 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Rainy season October-May in western WA (mold, moisture issues). Dry eastern WA has different climate entirely. Seattle tech economy creates high demand for premium services. Earthquake preparedness market growing.
Scrap Metal Haulers in Everett should plan their cash flow around these patterns. Nexa's budget envelope system helps you set aside revenue during peak season to cover slow months — something Jobber can't do because it still bills you $42/month during slow months.
Whether you call it billing, a platform for jobs, or a invoicing system — most scrap metal haulers in Everett mix and match Jobber, Housecall Pro, QuickBooks, Square and other monthly services. That's $1,044/year on recurring software. Over the next 5 years at today's prices, that bill reaches $5,220.
Nexa lets you own your tools. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — under one roof in a single platform. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No copying between apps. No integration hacks. No per-connection charges. It's a no subscription — stop overpaying right away. For scrap metal haulers in Everett weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
Every morning starts by checking where scrap prices landed, because copper, aluminum, brass, and steel each move on their own daily market, and the whole business is the spread between what I pay to pick it up and what the yard pays me to drop it. I run pickups off Craigslist calls, demolition sites, and standing accounts with shops that generate offcuts, and the magnet on the truck is constantly working because ferrous and non-ferrous have to be separated before they ever hit the yard scale. The money is entirely in sorting: a trailer of mixed steel pays pennies a pound, but if I pull the copper wire, the brass fittings, and the clean aluminum out and bin them separately, the same load is worth three times more. I'll torch down an oversized I-beam in the yard so it fits the trailer and grades right. At the scrap yard everything crosses a certified scale and each metal grade gets its own ticket, and reconciling those tickets against what I paid the seller is where I find out if a load actually made money. Certain material, catalytic converters and bulk copper especially, needs documented sourcing and seller ID because the yards and the law watch it for theft. I get home and the office work is matching tickets to pickups so I know my real margin per load.
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 scrap metal hauler'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 scrap metal hauler — 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.
