Book a job

There are three ways a job gets onto SkipDrop:

  1. You book it when the phone rings.
  2. The customer books online through your booking page.
  3. A driver adds it from the field if they take a walk-in.

This page covers the operator booking flow. For online bookings, see the customer portal.
