What It Is

Trash Flow is industry-specific software developed by Ivy Computer, Inc. for waste hauling companies. It covers residential, commercial, and industrial hauling, roll-off operations, landfills, transfer stations, weigh stations, and related workflows. Rather than being a generic CRM or ERP, it is an integrated system built around waste-hauling billing, routes, containers, dispatching, tickets, and online payments.

Core Capabilities

On the billing side, the system supports printed statements and invoices, multiple billing cycles, discounts and promotions, financial and customer reports, variable rates, customer account change tracking, and the creation of work orders that can be assigned to drivers or vehicles. The routing module supports suggested route positions by customer address, scheduling for intermittent service, route sheet generation, service suspension reminders, route profitability reports, and route optimization. Container tracking helps manage assets such as roll-offs, compactors, and dumpsters, recording location, placement, purchase details, and history. It also supports billing by placement site, rental fees, overweight fees, hauling fees, and more. TeleRoute extends functionality to tablets or phones, working alongside real-time vehicle maps and driver messaging.

Pricing and Trial

Public pricing is relatively specific: Billing Lite starts at a one-time price of $900, the Standard edition is $2,350, and Plus is $3,050, with SaaS pricing also noted. The Container Tracking module costs $550. A package including Advanced Billing and Container Tracking is $3,600, and the same package with Routing added is $4,150. A free 90-day Demo/License is available. After purchase, the first 90 days of technical support are free, with annual support contracts available thereafter.

Pros and Cons

Its main strength is deep industry fit, covering a closed loop from front-office payments and routing to driver execution, weighing, and container asset management. Modular purchasing lowers the entry barrier for smaller haulers. It supports electronic billing, credit/debit cards, bank checks, and automatic payments. The downside is that the public materials feel more like traditional Windows software documentation. Although SaaS, cloud databases, and cloud backup are mentioned, the boundaries of cloud deployment are not clearly defined. APIs, open integrations, and security certifications are not disclosed; only access control, secure internet communication, and backup capabilities can be confirmed.

Best Fit and Access from China

Trash Flow is best suited to waste hauling companies in the United States and Canada, especially small to mid-sized operators still managing billing and routes with QuickBooks, spreadsheets, or paper-based processes. Availability from China and payment usability are unknown. Its payments, maps, address validation, and business terminology are clearly oriented toward the North American market. For Chinese companies, local sanitation dispatch systems, financial ERP platforms, or customized TMS solutions may be more practical alternatives.
