Waste Management Software Pricing: What to Expect in 2025
Understanding waste management software pricing helps you budget for automation. Costs vary widely based on features, fleet size, and vendor. Here is what trash haulers should expect to pay.
Typical Pricing Models
Waste management software typically uses one of three pricing models: flat monthly fees, per-driver pricing, or enterprise custom quotes. Flat monthly fees (like GarbyX) are predictable and scale-friendly. Per-driver pricing can get expensive as you add trucks. Enterprise quotes often hide true costs until you are deep in the sales process.
What You Should Pay
For a small to mid-size hauler, expect to pay $200-500 per month for full-featured software. Be wary of solutions under $100/month—they often lack critical features. Avoid enterprise software over $1,000/month unless you have 20+ trucks and need advanced features.
Hidden Costs to Watch
Watch for per-user fees (these add up fast with drivers), hardware requirements, implementation fees, training costs, and long-term contracts. The best vendors offer transparent pricing with no surprises. GarbyX has no per-user fees, no hardware requirements, and month-to-month billing.
GarbyX Pricing
GarbyX offers three plans: Free ($0—get started with basic features), Pro ($299/month—everything you need to run your operation), and Scale ($499/month—advanced features for growing haulers). No per-user fees, no long-term contracts, and payment processing at competitive rates.
