Household register by route
Every home sits on a route with a named collector, its monthly fee and due day. The register is the backbone of the whole cycle.
Waste-collection dues, on autopilot
The collection fee
that collects itself.
Every month you walk the lanes, tick a paper diary, and try to remember which homes still owe. SafaiBook runs that whole cycle for you — dues by route, WhatsApp reminders, numbered receipts — the day the fee is due.

01 · The problem
You run the routes.
The chasing runs your month.
If you collect from three hundred homes across a few colonies with two or three collectors, nobody handed you an accounts department. Your system is a paper diary, a bundle of loose receipts, and your own memory — and all three quietly break down.
The diary can't tell you who's behind
By the 15th you're flipping pages to reconstruct which homes on which lane still owe. Some get asked twice, some never get asked at all.
The collector re-walks lanes for nothing
Without a route-by-route collection view, your worker knocks on doors that already paid and skips ones that didn't. Time and diesel, gone.
"Bhaiya, receipt do na"
Homes that paid want proof. You're tearing a slip from a book or promising a receipt later — and later never quite comes, so disputes linger.
Small dues leak into real money
Rs 100 a home feels trivial to chase — until forty homes carry two months of arrears and it's the collector's whole salary sitting uncollected.
02 · The insight
The collection fee is the most predictable recurring payment there is — same homes, same amount, same day — yet it's still chased on foot, lane by lane, from a diary.
SafaiBook's whole job is to close that gap: take a thing that repeats perfectly and let it run as a cycle — generate the dues, send the reminders, issue the receipt — so collection happens whether or not you remembered to start it.
03 · How it works
Set it up once. Then every month runs itself.
-
1
Register homes across your routes
Each route has a worker; each home gets its monthly fee and due day. Enter it once — that's the whole setup for a full colony.
-
2
On the due day, invoices generate
SafaiBook raises one collection invoice per active household and rolls any carried-forward arrears into each home's balance. Re-running never duplicates.
-
3
Staged reminders go out on WhatsApp
A nudge 3 days before, a note on the due day, a firmer one if it goes overdue — each drafted to the household, deduped so no home is ever pinged twice for the same stage.
-
4
Payment clears, numbered receipt goes back
Record cash or UPI and the due clears while a numbered digital receipt is issued automatically. Your dashboard always shows collected vs pending, by route.
04 · What's inside
The month's whole collection engine, in one book.
Monthly collection cycle
One invoice per active household, raised automatically on its due day. Set the day once; it repeats forever, and re-running never duplicates.
Dues & arrears roll-up
Every home carries a running balance — this month plus anything unpaid before it. No margin notes in a diary to reconcile.
Staged WhatsApp reminders
T-3 days, due day, and overdue nudges written to your outbox — polite, personal, and never sent twice to the same home for the same stage.
Numbered digital receipts
The moment a cash or UPI payment lands, the household gets a clean, numbered receipt with the home, route, month and amount. Proof, handled.
Collection % by route
See each route's collected-vs-pending at a glance, so your collector works the lanes still owing instead of re-walking ones already paid.
05 · The dashboard
Open it on the 1st. See every route in ten seconds.

06 · Pricing
Simple subscription. However many homes you serve.
If SafaiBook recovers a handful of missed fees a month that would otherwise have slipped through the diary, it's already paid for itself many times over — and you've bought back the hours your collector spends re-walking lanes.
- Unlimited routes & households
- Auto collection cycle + staged WhatsApp reminders
- Numbered digital receipts + arrears roll-up

Pricing — on discovery
Subscription basis
We set pricing on a short discovery call and bill it as a simple monthly subscription — sized to how many homes you serve. Early operators get founder terms.
Book a discovery call07 · Who it's for & questions
Built for the private collection operator, not the municipal corporation.
SafaiBook is for the person who runs door-to-door waste collection as a small business — two or three collectors, a few colonies, Rs 80–150 a home each month. Big enough that chasing the fee eats your month; small enough that municipal ERP software is overkill and out of reach. If you're running it on a paper diary today, this is for you.
Does it actually send messages, or just remind me to?
SafaiBook drafts each reminder — personalised, with the household name, route, month and balance — and stages it in your outbox on schedule. You send from your own number with a tap, so it always looks like it came from you, not a robot. And it never double-sends the same stage to the same home.
Households pay by cash and UPI. Does that work?
Yes. Mark a cash payment as received and the due clears and a numbered receipt goes out, same as UPI. SafaiBook tracks each home's balance — it doesn't force a single payment rail on the colony.
I run three collectors across a few colonies. Can I see it by route?
That's the core view. Every household sits on a route with a worker, and the dashboard shows collection percentage route by route — so you know which lane your collector still needs to work before month-end.
What does it cost?
Pricing is worked out on a quick discovery call and billed monthly on subscription. We're keeping public prices off the page while we onboard our first operators.
