Rubbish removal software for Australian businesses
Price the load in the driveway off your rate card, book the pickup before the tailgate's shut, and have the invoice paid before the tip run's done. All of it from your phone, all of it on one flat price.
Quotes that itemise the load, the surcharges and the tip fees
Your rates go on the quote as line items: general waste by the cubic metre, heavy waste by the tonne, the mattress surcharge, the tip fees if you pass them through. Each line is your price times the quantity, so a metre and a half of hard rubbish is 1.5 at your rate, not a calculator session. The client texts you photos of the pile, you send back a clear written quote they can accept from their phone, and nothing's a surprise when the invoice lands.
Your environmental authority, on every document
Household rubbish work doesn't carry a general licence in Australia, but the paperwork still tells clients you're the professional: a proper quote, a proper invoice, your ABN and business details on both. jobmate247 renders your details on every PDF and every share link, and if you transport regulated waste under an environmental authority (ERA 57 under Queensland's Environmental Protection Act 1994), there's a spot to display the licence name and number on your documents too. Tip fees at levyable sites carry the Queensland waste levy under the Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011: quote them as a line and they're never an awkward conversation. Know your patch's rules; we'll keep the business side straight.
Your rate card, saved once
The trade runs on a rate card: so much a cubic metre for general waste, more for the heavy stuff, a minimum charge, the mattress and e-waste surcharges. Save every rate as an item in your price book and pricing a load takes a couple of taps in the driveway. And when the job needs eyes on it first (the deceased estate, the hoarder clean-out, the builder's site clear), build a proper written quote from the same price book, line by line. Quick prices for the standard loads, real quotes for the big clears: both from one list you control.
Agents, builders and regulars
The end-of-lease clear-out, the builder's site clean, the agency that rings every second week: repeat work is where a rubbish run gets comfortable. jobmate247's client records handle companies properly: multiple contacts, multiple site addresses, so the property manager, the office and every managed address live under one client. Set the regular commercial pickups up as recurring jobs and they land in your calendar on schedule with a draft invoice already raised: send it before you've left the tip.
Invoices that chase themselves
Turn the accepted quote into a GST-ready invoice in a couple of taps. Every invoice carries a share link with your bank details and PayID, so the client can pay the moment they open it. Automatic overdue reminders chase the money so you don't have to make that awkward call.
Book the next load before you've tipped this one
The best time to book the next job is while the truck's still loaded. Book the return visit from the job, send a calendar invite, and it's locked in before you've left the kerb. When an agent rings up again, their history's all there: what you cleared, what you charged, which site had the tricky driveway.
Bring your client list with you
Import your clients from a CSV or straight out of Cashflow Manager with your account codes kept intact, and export invoices as a CSV formatted for Xero or MYOB for your bookkeeper.

Frequently asked questions
- Is jobmate247 junk removal software?
- Same trade, same tool. Whether you call it rubbish removal software or junk removal software, it's the same day's work: quote the load, book the pickup, get paid. jobmate247 runs junk removal business software workflows end to end (quotes, jobs, scheduling and invoicing) for Australian operators, at one flat price.
- How does rubbish removal pricing work in jobmate247?
- Every line on a quote or invoice is your price times the quantity. General waste rides as your per-cubic-metre rate times the volume, heavy waste like brick and soil as your per-tonne rate times the weight, and the minimum charge, mattress surcharge and tip fees go on as their own lines. The client sees exactly what they're paying for, and the invoice matches the quote.
- Do I need a licence to run a rubbish removal business in Australia?
- There's no general licence for household rubbish removal. In Queensland, transporting regulated waste needs an environmental authority for regulated waste transport (ERA 57) under the Environmental Protection Act 1994, with waste tracking obligations. Tip fees at levyable sites carry the Queensland waste levy under the Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011. jobmate247's licence fields display your environmental authority name and number on every quote and invoice. Other states run their own rules, so check your patch.
- Isn't waste management software the same thing?
- Different buyer. Waste management software runs councils and multi-truck fleets: bin lifts, weighbridge integration, route optimisation. If that's your operation, those are the right tools by category. jobmate247 is for the operator who quotes the job, books it in and invoices it: the one-truck outfit pricing loads in driveways, at deceased estates and on building sites.
- Does jobmate247 do online customer booking, driver dispatch or route planning?
- No, honestly, none of those. There's no customer self-booking page, no driver dispatch board and no route optimiser: one login owns the account, and bookings stay where they already live (your phone and your messages). jobmate247 keeps everything after that organised: the quote, the job in the calendar, the invoice with a pay link your client can open from a text. If dispatch boards and routing are the heart of your operation, a fleet platform is the right tool: jobmate247 is for the work you quote.
- Can I save my rates as a price book?
- Yes. Save each rate as a price book item (general waste per cubic metre, heavy waste per tonne, minimum charge, mattress surcharge, tip fee) with your prices. Quotes and invoices build from them in a couple of taps, and when you put a rate up, every new quote uses the new number.
- What does jobmate247 cost?
- A$35 per month flat, GST inclusive. No per-user fees, no limits on jobs, quotes or invoices, and no job credits to run out of halfway through the month.
- Do I need to install a rubbish removal app?
- No. jobmate247 runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer, so there's nothing to download and nothing to update. If you've been searching for a junk removal app, this works the same way, minus the app store. Add it to your home screen and it opens just like an app.
