Set up your Dispo hauler profile in 10 minutes

7 minute read · step-by-step

If Warren sent you here, read this while you wait on the demo link. If you're flying solo, this is the fastest path from "I've heard of Dispo" to "I'm on a bid feed."

What you need before you start

  • Your EPA, TCEQ, RRC registration numbers (look them up in your compliance binder; they're one line each)
  • Your ISNetworld status — active, which grading category
  • Your Avetta status if applicable
  • Your USCG certification if you do marine work
  • Your insurance certificate — at least the liability limit
  • A list of your trailers and boxes (transport types + equipment items); Dispo has a preset catalog, you just check them off
  • Your service-area ZIP prefixes — three digits each (e.g., 775, 776, 777)

Step 1 — Claim your profile (1 min)

  1. Go to /auth/sign-up?role=provider
  2. Company name → your legal company name as it appears on your insurance + manifest filings
  3. Your name, email, password → you're the admin; invite teammates later
  4. You land on /provider/dashboard — that's home from now on

Step 2 — Credentials (3 min)

Go to /provider/credentials.

For each credential you hold, pick the kind, paste the number, and add the expiration date. Always include the expiration. Dispo automatically hides expired credentials from bid matching — if you forget to add the date, your credential still counts (never expires), but you won't get the automatic “expiring soon” warning on your dashboard.

For insurance, enter the liability limit in dollars (e.g., 5000000 for $5M). This is what generators filter on when they post a job with “min $5M insurance” as a requirement.

Step 3 — Service areas (1 min)

Same page, below credentials. Enter the 3-digit ZIP prefixes you actually work — not where you could work in theory. Houston metro = 770, 772, 774, 775. Golden Triangle = 776, 777. Don't add 775 if you won't actually run a Beaumont-to-Dow job; the platform will waste bids on you.

Step 4 — Equipment (3 min)

Go to /provider/equipment. The catalog has 15 transport types and 14 equipment types. Check everything you actually own. Include:

  • All vacuum trailers — note coded vs non-coded, carbon vs stainless, capacity
  • All roll-offs — single, double
  • End-dumps by size
  • Frac tanks, vac boxes, trash boxes, poly cubes
  • Portable sanitation items if you handle those

In the “Unit label” field, add specifics that move jobs: “just washed” for stainless, “acid-capable” for chemical-rated, specific trailer numbers if you want internal tracking. Quantity is how many of that asset type you have.

Step 5 — Idle-asset toggles (2 min)

Go to /provider/idle. For any equipment you're OK having listed on the idle-asset marketplace, toggle “Available” and set an hourly or daily rate. Pricing guide here.

You can opt in today and opt out later. Idle listings show up on the generator-side marketplace; a generator with a short-notice need can book you without a posted job.

That's the whole setup.

Your profile is live the moment you save. The next qualifying job — same ZIP prefix, credentials match — posts in your area, you get an email. Click, review, bid. Claim yours now.

Common gotchas

  • “I added my credential but I'm still not getting jobs.” Credentials have to be verified by the platform admin. Post-launch, that's a manual review by Warren or Phil; they'll turn it green within 24 hours.
  • “My service area doesn't include all the ZIPs I work.” Use 3-digit prefixes, not 5-digit ZIPs. A prefix like 775 covers everything 77501–77599.
  • “I got matched to a job I can't actually run.” Re-check your equipment list; you probably have a capability checked you shouldn't. Turn it off and move on.
