Online booking Options?

I run a junk removal company and am trying to simplify online booking processes for our customers. We offer single item curbside pickup with rates varying based on the item being picked up. We've listed out hundreds of possible items and their pricing for straight forward pricing, but I see that if I make it available for online booking it is just one massive cumbersome list that customer would have to scroll through to find their item. 

Is there any way break this into categories? or make it more of a drop down or allow customers to search for items?

    We've run into a similar issue with setting up our online bookings. It seems there is no native option in Jobber for drop-down selection booking options (yet), so our work-around for this was to create a separate Online Booking Service (adapted to your junk removal) called Online Booking - Curbside Pickup setting the price as the minimum (or maximum) charge, and setting the description for this service as something like:

    Online Booking - Curbside Pickup
    We'll pickup your items curbside - charge varies based on item being picked up, click See More below for a full list of items and associated curbside pickup fees. Please note on the next page which item you'd like to have picked up.

    Bicycle - $18
    Canoe - $45
    etc...

    It's not a perfect solution, but could be a viable work-around for you until more online booking options are integrated.

    Hope this helps :)
