Smart waste management

Reducing the amount of waste generated and processed by large facilities may seem like a no-brainer. Emptying waste bins, sorting recycling and dealing with the mess in the most efficient way possible can save money, time and aggravation.

But waste management is also about sustainability. Recycling bins that don’t get used are data nodes sending you a message. So, too, are waste baskets that are constantly overflowing, or demands by maintenance staff for more frequent trash pickups or cleanup crews.

Most contractors place sustainable waste management (61 percent) and responsible use of materials and resources (57 percent) as two of the three most important aspects of green building, behind energy efficiency.

Microshare’s solutions will not only save money; they will “green up” this mess.

  • Microshare incorporates various LoRaWAN sensors to monitor fill levels and send providers alerts or feed route planning systems. This results in reduced carbon emissions by reducing truck rotations.
  • Bin sensors not only prevent tenant complaints but also provide valuable data about high volume periods, surplus receptacles and even who may be throwing recyclable or dangerous materials into your bins. Empty when needed rather than on fixed schedule.
  • Monitors on industrial tips/dumpsters can prevent unauthorized usage, costly over-servicing as well as debris accumulation that can attract vermin or municipal fines.
