Visitors can estimate a job by selecting specific items or by choosing a truck-volume option.

FAQ
-
Does this plugin require an external service?
-
No. The calculator, catalog, settings, and built-in booking form run inside WordPress.
-
Can I use my own booking form instead?
-
Yes. Set the booking action to redirect and enter the booking URL in Settings > Junk Calculator > Booking Form. You can also override the URL per shortcode with
booking_url. -
Can I customize the prices and items?
-
Yes. Use Settings > Junk Calculator > Specific Item Pricing and Truck Volume Pricing to edit the default rows or add your own.
-
Does it work with Elementor?
-
Yes. The shortcode works in Elementor’s Shortcode widget. When Elementor is active, the plugin also registers a native Junk Removal Calculator widget.
-
Does the built-in booking form store personal data?
-
The built-in booking form sends the submitted request details to the configured recipient email using
wp_mail(). Optional uploaded photos are attached to the email and removed from temporary storage after the email attempt. The plugin does not send this data to any third-party service.
