We can help you design, implement and continuously improve your food waste collection service.
An effective food waste service has to be easy for residents to use with reliable and frequent collections. Kitchen receptacles and smaller collection vehicles are common solutions and may not work as a simple extension of an existing alternate-weekly collection scheme with 26 tonne RCVs.
Our food waste management software and expertise can help you determine the optimum mix of vehicles, collection routes and working practices to create a reliable and productive waste collection service.
Our strategic planning tools can quickly analyse different working patterns, vehicle mixes and collection frequencies to determine the most cost-effective service strategy, taking account of depot locations, disposal facilities, vehicle payloads and likely participation rates.
The integrated route design and optimisation tools work in tandem with our in-cab data systems to continuously optimise your service as participation builds, new housing is built and the service matures.
An effective food waste service should offer residents a seamless way to participate and manage their refuse. Collective’s food waste management software will simplify procedures by providing a user-friendly website that allows for easy sign up to the service, viewing of collection schedules and request of new containers and caddies as required. This approach not only encourages greater participation but also reduces operational expenses, improving the performance of your food waste management processes.
Our integration covers a wide range of prominent local authority webforms and customer service platforms, including:
Alternatively, you can directly embed our pre-built forms on your website, allowing you to manage the entire service through Collective while maintaining complete control.
A weekly service for decomposable materials must be reliable and delivered efficiently every time. Collective was the first in-cab data system for local authority bin trucks and today is used by almost 100 UK councils.
Your crews have accurate and up-to-date round and route information with two-way information sharing. Your customers can get answers to their queries quickly from your website or call-centre, even while crew are actively out delivering the service.
Our waste management software works continually to collect real-time management information such as actual presentation rates, weights collected and service times. This data drives continual and simple route optimisation so you can keep crews working at maximum efficiency and safety.
We have decades of experience helping councils to improve all aspects of their waste and recycling services. Read more about specific services below.
