PortaPro vs Docket
Dumpster software, or dumpsters and everything else you rent.
Docket is software for roll-off dumpster, junk removal and waste hauling businesses. PortaPro runs roll-offs too, in the same account as portable toilets, septic and event rentals, with the price on the website.

Questions about Docket and PortaPro
How much does Docket cost?
Docket does not publish its plan prices. Its pricing page asks you to schedule a demo. It does list card processing at 3.0% + 30 cents on Grow and 2.8% + 30 cents on Pro, and ACH at 1%. PortaPro's plans are $149, $229 and $309 a month, with 2.25% flat card processing and free ACH on Growth.
What does 2.25% versus 2.8% + 30 cents mean on a real invoice?
On a $450 roll-off invoice paid by card, 2.8% + 30 cents is $12.90 and 2.25% is $10.13. Across $40,000 a month of card payments at that invoice size, the difference is about $250 a month. Your own mix of invoice sizes and ACH will change the number.
Can PortaPro run only roll-offs?
Yes. Add only roll-off containers and that is what your inventory shows. Rental terms, disposal sites, scale tickets and final invoices all run without any portable toilet equipment in the account.
Can I move from Docket to PortaPro?
Yes. Export your customers and sites as a spreadsheet and paste or upload it under Customers, Import, and we help you move at no extra charge.
