SmartBin closed container monitor
Add visibility to your waste operations. SmartBin gauges and reports fill levels for suitable closed containers, including clothing and textile bins, glass and plastics recycling containers, and certain liquid containers. Using ultrasonic measurement and wireless communication, it shows you container fullness so you can schedule pickups at the right time. SmartBin sensors are purchased upfront, with a monthly subscription for fill-level monitoring.
Right-time pickups for containers you can't see into
Closed containers hide their fill level, so pickups get scheduled on a calendar instead of on need. Too early wastes a pickup, too late means overflow. SmartBin measures fullness ultrasonically and reports it wirelessly, so your team can time pickups to need. You purchase the sensors upfront and pay a monthly subscription for monitoring, and the data stays in your hands so your team can optimize pickup schedules yourselves.
