WastePass
From one route to your whole operation

Validate first.
Then scale.

Select one route and validate the full chain: label, remote read, lift matching, transfer and exception reporting. Pilot success must be visible in the data.

01

Map the current operation.

Review bin surfaces, vehicles, lift signals, onboard systems and collection planning. Include normal conditions, obstructions and nearby bins in the pilot.

02

Design the setup and pilot.

Define identification, lift confirmation, data transfer and municipal access. Include a budget and evaluation criteria.

03

Validate real-world data.

Compare detected bins with actual lifts. Measure label readability, neighboring-bin mismatches, duplicates, connection outages and exception handling time.

04

Evaluate and expand.

Compare results with the baseline. Use the findings to plan additional vehicles, bins, integrations and ongoing support.

What to clarify before starting.

Do we need to replace the bins?

The aim is to use existing bins with a suitable label or another UHF RFID tag format. Adhesion, placement and readability are checked on the specific material.

Can we use our existing RFID tags?

If they use compatible technology and pass operational testing. Existing LF or HF tags are not automatically compatible with a UHF reader. We check the type first.

What if there is no mobile signal?

Local buffering and later synchronization can be included in the onboard design. The behavior and duplicate handling are tested during the pilot.

Does RFID measure weight or fill level?

A passive RFID tag identifies the bin. Weight requires scales and fill level requires a separate sensor. These can be considered as optional extensions.

Will the municipality have access to its data?

The municipal view, record scope, exports and permissions are part of the design. Data stewardship, edit rights and change review are agreed in advance.

How quickly can we deploy?

Timing depends on vehicles, bin counts, hardware availability and integrations. A specific schedule follows the initial assessment.

Start with one collection route.

Validate tag reads, data quality and the value for your operation.
