Chatting with other users

2 min. readlast update: 01.01.2023

The best way to communicate with other listings is through chat messaging. You can make offers also helps minimize back and forth (and BS).

Why should I use chat? - You mean besides getting top dollar? not wasting your time? and having a paper trail? Do you like talking on the phone? ☎️ 

You can reach out to any import or export listing to ask questions, share documents, or to send an offer and job schedule. Sending documents like soil reports or photos is great for eliminating back and forth.

Do:

  • 💬 Contact listings to ask questions
  • 📄 Share documents like soil tests
  • 📸 Share photos of material or the site
  • 💰 Make offers on material or tipping fees
  • 📆 Schedule your haulage plans

Don't:

  • Be a jerkoff
  • Make offers on the same material all over town
  • Mislabel contaminated material as clean
  • Leave people hanging
  • Etc
