Dayjob is AI Scheduling for Waste Trucks Waste routes are still built manually, every single morning. A transport planner sits down at 7am, spends 60 to 90 minutes dragging jobs onto trucks, and the plan is usually wrong by 10am. Customers often say they literally cannot hire and train planners fast enough. It’s a nightmare when one of those planners is off sick or has to go away on vacation. Humans are being asked to continuously re-optimize hundreds of constraints: vehicle capacity, weight limits, time windows, driver hours, live traffic, all in real time. It's cognitively impossible to do reliably. If a fleet can complete just 10 more jobs a day, that's worth millions per year. The opportunity cost of bad scheduling is enormous and almost nobody in this industry has solved it. Dayjob sits on top of existing ERP software. The scheduling agent builds a full fleet schedule in about 60 se

For the last two years, my co-founder, Fred Fooks, and I have applied AI and advanced analytics to help recyclers manage complex on-site operations. That work gave us a front-row seat to a much bigger issue across the industry: Waste and recycling vehicle scheduling is highly manual. Skip hire is a perfect example. Stacking deliveries, traffic delays, customer service challenges… things rarely run perfectly to plan. The companies with automated systems in the waste industry use those built originally for parcels, not skips. So we built something better. Introducing Dayjob. AI scheduling purpose-built for skip hire. We’ve been testing it with customers, and the results speak for themselves: → 5-10% more jobs done with the same fleet → Lower operational costs → Smoother days for planners and drivers alike Dayjob adapts in real time to the messiness of skip operations. If you run a skip hir

A 5% improvement in routing efficiency is worth hundreds of thousands of pounds a year to them. We take that seriously. We want every customer to feel the impact of what we're building, and this role is central to making that happen. This is a field-first role: three days a week at customer depots across the UK, the rest at our Camden office.

“There was nothing that enabled the scheduling and routing of skips — and that’s where Dayjob came in.” In this interview, Rowan, MD at Allstone Speedy Skips, shares how Dayjob filled a critical operational gap by helping them go from reactive guesswork to real-time, AI-powered plans. When asked about AI hesitancy, Rowan puts it plainly: “There shouldn’t be any trepidation at all. Yes, there’s a process of change, that’s normal and natural. But I’d advise any MD, any business owner: get involved.” If you’re still running jobs off spreadsheets, whiteboards, or memory, then this is for you. …more
