Portsmouth City Council bring waste and recycling services in house with Bartec Municipal Technologies
In April 2024, Portsmouth City Council will begin operating an ‘in-house’ waste and recycling service when the current contract with Biffa ends. Collective, from Bartec Municipal Technologies, will underpin the service, managing scheduled and reactive work and providing real-time information to residents via the Collective Resident’s Portal.

The fleet of over 30 refuse collection vehicles will be fitted with CollectiveX in-cab systems to guide collection crews along their routes and automatically update key service data. Safety and security is enhanced with integrated on-board video from Contel.
