Contracts (long-term hire)

A contract is a long-term hire arrangement: same customer, same site (or sites), agreed price, monthly invoicing. Better for both sides than booking each load.

Contracts are a Pro feature.

When to use a contract

Section titled “When to use a contract”
  • A builder on a 6-month site needs a skip swapped weekly
  • A commercial property has a fixed waste-removal schedule
  • You agree fixed pricing in exchange for guaranteed volume

Create a contract

Section titled “Create a contract”
  1. Contracts → + New contract.
  2. Pick the customer.
  3. Pick the site(s) the contract covers.
  4. Set:
    • Start + end date
    • Skip type + agreed price (overrides customer + default prices)
    • Cadence — weekly / on-demand / fixed dates
    • Monthly invoicing — invoiced on the 1st of every month
    • Notes — any special terms
  5. Generate contract PDF. SkipDrop fills the template with your branding + the customer’s details.
  6. Send for signature — email link to the customer; they sign in-browser; PDF is stamped + filed.

Day-to-day under contract

Section titled “Day-to-day under contract”

Any job booked for that customer + site uses the contract price automatically. No new invoices per job — they roll up into a monthly invoice on the 1st.

When the contract is ending

Section titled “When the contract is ending”

SkipDrop nudges you 30 days before the end date — extend or let it lapse. After lapse, the customer’s bookings revert to normal pricing.
