How it works

• An RFID reader, easily installed on all collection vehicles, is used to scan RFID-enabled containers and capture container details, account information, and GPS locations of vehicles and containers.
• This solution must encompass a full work order and inventory system in order to maintain an accurate database.
• All data is automatically imported into the Service Verification app.
• Dispatch accesses Service Verification to verify container pickup, historical participation, and truck and route metrics.
• From there, Dispatch can verify collection for a customer using Map Center or Manage Accounts.
  • Observe customizable options such as whether the cart was set out, if the load was oversized, etc.
  • Send monthly participation to county.
  • Evaluate route and tip metrics to optimize route workload.

• Decreased installation time and costs
  – Less cabling and components promote ease of installation within 2 to 4 hours (3-4 All-in-One system to every 1 traditional system)
  – Can be installed by your own personnel to save costs
  – Systems can easily be swapped from truck to truck
  – Expedites troubleshooting process and minimizes downtime
  – Does not require technician to visit site to troubleshoot
• Automated Real-Time Data Delivery
  – Requires no driver interaction to deliver valuable data for reporting
  – Option for Observation Panel allows the driver to capture exceptions
  at stops such as no container out, overflow, and contamination

Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) RFID hardware and software can be installed on any type of collection truck available, including: commercial front and rear load, Currotto cans, semi-automated rear load, semi-automated side load, and/or fully automated collection vehicles. These systems allow the vehicle to read RFID-enabled containers during collection and then communicate data in real time to our web-based software for reporting. Optional three-button Observation Panels can also provide an easy and simple way for drivers to capture additional vital data while on their route. The panel’s three buttons can be configured to record data to support your operations, e.g. “container blocked,” “container not out,” “extra tip,” etc. With RFID-enabled trucks and containers, it is easy to proactively track lost or stolen containers, determine residential or commercial participation/collection verification, and thus efficiently manage routes, collection programs and targeted education programs.
