A large complex has four functioning compactors, all on the same account and service schedule. These were serviced by the same national hauler reporting their data regularly.
The complex’s manager installed DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitors in all of the compactors and the data showed that something was off. The vendor was reporting tonnage amounts to the incorrect compactor.
The data showed that the national hauler was reporting tonnage to the incorrect compactor 75% of the time. This meant expensive trash invoices for the complex. One compactor was being over-reported by nearly 200%.
DSQ Pioneer’s data allowed the manager to unscramble the mess and line up the tonnage to the correct compactors. This instantly provided the complex with a drastic impact on their waste invoicing. Each compactor's actual tonnage vs reported tonnage varied by 79% on average.
With DSQ Pioneer, the complex was able to review which compactors were being hardly used and change their pickup schedule to an on-call one. This is expected to reduce annual hauls by 80%.
Being able to measure fullness levels and compare them with vendor’s reporting allows waste managers to verify and control each of their compactors. With DSQ’ Pioneer’s data, properties no longer rely on blind trust on the hauler’s data which will save both time and money.
