Fully-automated SmartTrash® System

The days of being wasteful with waste management are over.

SmartTrash provides a fully automated compactor management system. After it is installed and calibrated, SmartTrash does all the rest: determining the optimal time to empty the compactor, communicating directly with your waste collection provider, and/or your on-site team to arrange collections, on time every time.

SmartTrash Base Station
  • Communication
  • Calibration
  • Creation
  • Confirmation

  • Communication from anywhere

    SmartTrash monitors can communicate from anywhere with wireless cellular data service (LTE, GSM, CDMA, HSPA) even when the compactors are located three floors underground in a concrete garage, the SmartTrash monitors stay “in touch” 24 hours per day.

  • Calibrating the "smarts"

    Along with physically installing the SmartTrash monitors, SmartTrash technicians also install the “smarts” calibrating the system to the compactor’s unique performance signatures, setting up the decision-making processes and integrating all critical contacts for the waste hauler and client.

  • Creating the optimal time to collect a compactor

    SmartTrash records every compactor cycle and reads all the relevant data generated by the machine’s operation. Based on this information and the “smart” analysis performed by SmartTrash itself, it is easy to determine when a collection order should be generated and sent to the collector.

  • Confirming and Closing out the haul order

    SmartTrash automatically ensures that your compactor was actually emptied. This allows the collection order to be closed out and the date and time of the service to be entered into the system.

Save Time

SmartTrash eliminates the need for your staff to physically check on the compactor for fullness, no need for them to schedule collections, and with the added benefit of our reporting suite you will have access to standard and bespoke reports to show your collection dates and weights – an essential for bill validation, usage by day/night, and environmental and cost savings reports

By installing the SmartTrash monitor and optimizing compactor collection without causing “pack-outs” or unnecessary collections, expensive transportation costs can be saved.

  • Monitor Installation and Set up (more...)

    The SmartTrash compactor monitor hardware is installed on or near the compactor’s control panel. It will time-stamp, record and analyze all of the compactor activity; how hard and how frequently the compactor is working including energy utilization, directional valve shifts, safety door switch activations and the pick up and return of the compactor.

  • Real-Time Data Feed (more...)

    Compactor data from the Monitor is relayed to our Data Center and uploaded into our SQL Database Management Software, where it is processed and evaluated by SmartTrash software. SmartTrash techncians calibrate your monitor so it can automatically check fullness and performance to make sure your compactor is emptied “just in time”.

  • Unique Data Solutions (more...)

    SmartTrash is the only waste management system offering a full range of data mining and control features. All of the data is stored and backed up on our server, allowing us to create custom reporting on the savings, weights achieved and the detailed activity of your compactor.

    In addition to compactors, SmartTrash can be used on balers, trash chutes, lifters, conveyors and scales. Whether you want to limit access, count bales, troubleshoot equipment problems, optimize pickups or simply make sure your container is never overweight, SmartTrash can provide you the solution.
