DELIVERING ROLL-OFF SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS AS WELL AS DUMPSTERS
Founded in 2012 by Bill Bradley, 5280 Dumpster & Roll-Off Solutions has grown to become the largest independent roll-off company in the Rocky Mountain West, in conjunction with Marrel Corporation’s Ampliroll Hooklift Systems.
The company meets the waste management and recycling needs of businesses, contractors, HOAs (home-owner associations) and residential customers throughout the greater Denver area.
Specializing in waste and recycling loads ranging from 10 to 40 yards, 5280 Dumpster & Roll-Off Solutions operates 37 trucks, fields over 1,600 containers and hauls as many as 315 loads per day.
Recognizing the need for better roll-off software
As his operations grew, Bill realized the complex, on-demand nature of roll-off would create operational challenges. Unless addressed, these could limit his company’s ability to serve its many clients.
Roll-off haulers require real-time information to optimize inventory and manage on-demand or just-in-time work. Of course, they must also communicate effectively with customers and drivers.
The key? Software to provide information visibility and real-time control to run operations efficiently and profitably under a wide variety of conditions and demands.
The problem? Off-the-shelf products were not up to the task. Most software for roll-off operations were poor adaptations of residential and commercial hauling solutions.
Other software offered fragmented solutions from disconnected vendors—leaving roll-off users with a patchwork of disjointed technology with large gaps in function and value.
Meeting the challenge with Starlight Software Solutions
The needs of the roll-off industry cried out for all-in-one solutions that ran live from one end of the business to the other—including customer participation.
Ideally, the new software would manage all aspects of the hauling and service process. Solutions would need to be able to adapt on the fly, in a constantly changing environment.
Because no such products were on the market, Bill rolled up his sleeves and developed new ones of his own. Drawing on his tech background, he assembled an experienced team of development pros and created Starlight Software Solutions in 2014.
Whenever a promising idea came to the forefront, 5280 Waste Solutions became the “incubator.” Starlight developers tested, refined and perfected all software not in some back-office but rather in the real world of roll-off in Colorado.
They rode in cable-loader and hooklift trucks, sat in dispatch, answered client calls, took orders and worked with contractors in the field. This hands-on approach created a range of software solutions from Starlight that specifically address the everyday problems faced by roll-off haulers across the country.
