My business partner and I are starting a pilot program in the late fall with a large west coast city to test a new commercial waste and recycling service. We’re looking for feedback to see if we’re building a useful service .
We’ve built a weigh-in-motion scale system that reports and stores each pickup’s weight. The system adds the GPS coordinates to that weight data and sends it over the Internet to the hauler. We store this data for haulers who sell this to their customers. Their customers log into a website we run to track how much waste they generate and can also see if they're generating more waste than other customers like them (for example, other grocery stores in the area that are also customers of the same hauler).
Here are our questions:
Thanks for your responses,
- Do haulers want or need better waste data? (how much waste or exact location)
- Do commercial customers care about having accurate waste data on a pickup by pickup basis? Or is it just a nice to have and we’re wasting our time building this kind of system?
