  1. Open the Route tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
  2. Swaps are a pickup plus a drop at one stop; add the dump run after so the can is empty for the next drop.
  3. Track the can number so you always know which container is where.
  4. Using Google Sheets? Upload the file to Google Drive, then open it with Google Sheets (or File → Import in an open sheet). Formulas, dropdowns and highlights carry over.

The file opens locally on your device — nothing is uploaded, and you own the copy outright.
