Product tour
A morning at a skip firm, screen by screen.
These are screenshots of SkipDeck at 10:45 on a Thursday: four lorries out, eleven jobs done and the afternoon still to come. Bookings, the board, the drivers’ phones, the weighbridge and Defra, customers, invoices and compliance are all the same book.
Birmingham City Skips Ltd is a sample firm. Its customers, addresses and figures are made up. Click any screen to see it larger.
Start with what needs deciding.
The dashboard opens on the day: what needs a decision, loads still to record for Defra, road permits running out, and the day's jobs, map and customers.

Build the runs.
Drag the day's work onto the lorries. Every lane is timed on real road journeys from your yard, with the trips back to tip and reload, and a missed agreed time is flagged as you go.

Follow the day as it runs.
Each driver has a private link on their phone with their run in order. The office sees who is on time and who isn't.

Weigh it and report it.
Every load that comes back is weighed against its job, and the receipt is ready for Defra with the EWC code on it. Nothing goes to Defra until you send it.
