Most roll-off operators know whether a day is going to plan within its first few hours. The majority of days do not. Operators have to plan drive routes that balance sizes, stacking, tight time slots, route efficiency, and drivers coming back to the yard multiple times. The process takes 60 to 90 minutes each day, but these intricately designed routes can unravel in seconds due to a last-minute customer change or a missed time window. As a result, operators’ time—which could be spent on strategic work, making sure drivers are happy, or answering customer queries—is spent making rapid adjustments just to keep everything running smoothly. And when they have to compromise and approve less efficient routes, the business loses margin. Dayjob is an AI scheduling agent purpose-built for waste management companies. It plugs directly into existing job booking systems and telematics, helping planners to build and adapt their schedules faster. It automatically generates routes that account for the variables of the job, meaning operators can build entire schedules in under five minutes. Founded by George Postlethwaite (ex-Deliveroo) and Fred Fooks (ex-Deloitte), Dayjob is built on a deep understanding of how teams on the ground make or break performance and is backed by Y Combinator. Dayjob customers enjoy a 110 percent increase in jobs every day and reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel costs. This increased efficiency on average equates to an 11 percent revenue uplift, 50 percent more customer time windows hit, and 65 hours saved per week. Since January 2026, it has routed 218,098 jobs. Dayjob has been described as “the best routing software I’ve used” by Stuart, a Planner from Coastal, who also noted that it “speeds up the monotonous parts of the job so I can spend more time on problem solving; while I can remember five jobs and all the variables at one time, Dayjob can sort through and organize thousands.” For more information, visit getdayjob.ai.
