Email, telephone and on site support

You will be given an allowance of credits each year. The credits used for each support request will depend on the nature of the assistance required and the turnaround time.

For example once you’re familiar with the system if you think an alternative report to those already provided would be of use to you and you’d like it within the next couple of weeks then you’d use between 4 and 20 credits depending on the complexity of the report.

If you’d like us to attend site to train a new starter and give us a couple of weeks warning then you’d use 24 credits per hour plus reasonable travel/accommodation expenses.

If you require immediate support: (these are calculated to the nearest 5 mins)

On the telephone – 24 credits per hour
Live screen support – 36 credits per hour
Database Fix – 48 credits per hour
On site support – 48 credits per hour plus reasonable travel/accommodation expenses

Press Full Page Feature in April's The Skip Magazine With its innovative approach, My Yard is designed to cut through the administrative time associated with managing the movement of skips, wagons, and material in and out of waste transfer stations and landfill sites. It was three years in development, created in collaboration with several waste and scrap firms including J. Doyle Ltd in Bolton, who have now been successfully using the software for over a year. William Nuttall, Manager of J Doyle Limited has been impressed with the results: "My Yard has simplified the whole job of running a fleet of HGVs, sped up our order processes and revolutionised our report structure. As a company, we've become much more efficient, saved money and reduced wastage." Click here to read the full article.

What do we think 24 months later? William Nuttall, Manager, J. Doyle Ltd

I would recommend this package to anyone within the recycling sector.

It has enabled the whole process of order processing from the original enquiry through to the sales invoice process to be speeded up allowing more time for staff to concentrate on other job requirements.

The system has cut down on the need to produce large amounts of paperwork that were once sent to customers; instead a report for any time period can be produced and sent to the customer quickly and easily. They can now retrieve their own reports via a dashboard too.

The system produces a variety of management reports that are updated in real time so we have reports that are up to date and relevant. The information not only gives facts based on quantity and tonnages but also margins and average prices.

Overall it has made the whole job of running a fleet of HGV's, a scrap yard and a waste transfer station a lot more smoother and the jigsaw of knowing the picture of where hundreds of containers are, how often they are serviced and the profitability of each job has come together easily and with no extra cost in man time or other investments.

'Why I chose My Yard' by Neil Mackey, Kenny Waste Management

With the demand for accurate information increasing from our client base and the need to integrate our administration activities with our operational and financial departments, I have spent several months assessing computer software which would enable us to deliver information in simple formats relating to all areas of our business.

We needed a system that had been designed to deal with the modern day demands associated with the logistics of our transportation and the operational day to day running of a dedicated Materials Recycling Facility. We also needed something that was simple and easy to use combined with a proactive and flexible approach from the company providing the software.

After meeting with all the companies that provide software, and waste management companies that already use the products we opted for My Yard. It's good value for money, flexible, the detail of our job really is in the design, it's simple to use and has extremely comprehensive features as standard.

More importantly Fifth Limb Ltd are extremely proactive in their quest to help companies such as ours and have demonstrated a great deal of flexibility to ensure all our needs have been met.

My Yard Testimonial from Lisa at J. Doyle Ltd

"The idea of having a piece of computer software to manage the workflow of all the orders sounded great, but also quite scary. My first thoughts were I'm sure everything I've been told it will do will save me time in the long run, but I presumed getting started would be a whole load of extra work on top of my already very busy day. I was pleasantly surprised. We were guided through the entire process and because they're so familiar with the work we do here they were always willing to answer phones so we were given uninterrupted time to get familiar with our new system.

My usual working day has definitely changed for the better. A lot of my laborious repetitive tasks have now gone. I don't have to retype, or write anything and all paperwork is generated automatically. I have all the information I need about past, present and future orders at the click of a button so I can sort out any query whilst the customer is on the phone.

Entering a new order is done in just a few clicks. Whilst giving jobs to drivers I get reminders about any money to collect off cash customers, licenses/permits required and whether the order has specific notes. When things change during the course of the day and I have to swop everything around, because of a puncture, or the customer puts the wrong material in a skip or the driver can't pick the skip up My Yard makes it easy to keep track of everything.

Everyone within the team here at J. Doyle has screens designed specifically for their job role, transport, our buyer, the weighbridge, management and accounts. So all the information for the business is fed into My Yard which means for once we're all sharing up to date information rather than some of it being only in one persons head. The time saved across the team is quite surprising. My Yard is marvelous and the after sales support from Fifth Limb has been fantastic."
