Solution 03 of 08
Every bin verified. Every shift accounted for. Every tonne reconciled.
Purpose-built scheduling, bin-level collection tracking, landfill coordination, and route generation for commercial and municipal waste fleets.
The business problem
What this solves
Routing built on paper, optimized rarely
Most municipal and commercial waste fleets run routes designed years ago. Static routing carries double-digit inefficiency that compounds every collection day.
Bin collection verified on trust
Drivers report which bins were collected at the end of the shift. Operations can't verify collection in real time, so missed bins turn into customer complaints, service callbacks, and damaged retention.
Landfill coordination is a black box
Tipping fees are paid per tonne, billed monthly, and reconciled by hand — or not at all. Tonnes hauled per truck can't be tied to specific landfill receipts without integrated data.
What it looks like on the ground
- Missed-pickup callbacks that burn a truck and crew for a handful of bins
- Citizen complaints and contract penalties with no defensible service record
- Tipping-fee invoices paid without verification against what trucks actually hauled
- Dispatchers rebuilding schedules by hand every time a truck goes down
How iQlynx solves it
Smart Waste Operations, connected
iQlynx runs the waste operation end to end: the Assignment Board plans and dispatches every collection shift, bin-level tracking verifies pickups as they happen, recurrence rules keep schedules current, and landfill receipts reconcile against measured truck weights. When a truck breaks down mid-shift, bins re-optimize onto the remaining fleet automatically.
Core capabilities
What it does
Assignment Board
Plan and dispatch all collection shifts from one operational board.
Shift lifecycle tracking
Dispatched, Upcoming, Completed, Cancelled, and Incomplete — the state of every shift at a glance.
Bin-level collection tracking
Picked vs. unpicked counts per shift, verified in real time rather than reported after the fact.
Shift detail views
Map, truck, parking, and landfill assignment for every shift.
Recurrence rules
Daily, weekly, or biweekly schedules that generate themselves.
Automatic re-optimization
Bins reassign automatically when trucks, routes, or conditions change mid-day.
Landfill receipt reconciliation
Tie truck weights to landfill receipts and surface billing discrepancies.
Filtering, sorting, exporting
Operational records structured for reporting, audits, and contract compliance.
Map-based bin and route visualization
See coverage, gaps, and progress spatially.
Who it's for
Built for these roles
- Operations directors
- Route planners
- Municipal operations leaders
- Customer-service managers
Best fit: Commercial waste haulers, municipal waste fleets, organics collection operations, and recycling fleets running 10 or more trucks on scheduled residential or commercial routes.
Industry application
Where it earns its keep
Commercial waste hauling
The operational backbone — ties weight, route, customer billing, and landfill reconciliation together.
Municipal waste
Public-facing accountability: fewer citizen complaints, audit-ready service records.
Recycling & organics
Per-stream tracking supports diversion reporting and net-zero commitments.
Roll-off & dumpster
Track high-value asset placements and pickups, with weight tied to billing automatically.
Operational workflow
How it runs, day to day
- 1
Plan
Recurrence rules and the Assignment Board build every shift.
- 2
Dispatch
Shifts, trucks, and routes reach drivers through the mobile app.
- 3
Collect
Bin pickups verify in real time; missed bins are visible immediately.
- 4
Tip
Truck weights reconcile against landfill receipts per load.
- 5
Prove
Service records and diversion data back up billing, contracts, and council reporting.
Integrations & data sources
Where the data comes from
- GPS and telematics position data
- Onboard weight data (with Weight Intelligence)
- Bin inventories and customer service schedules
- Landfill and transfer-station receipts
- Driver mobile app confirmations
Device and integration compatibility is validated during the pilot — see devices & sensors.
Value framework
Where the return comes from
Waste operations gain on four fronts. Each is measurable in your own operation within weeks of a pilot.
Route efficiency
Generated, continuously optimized routes replace routes designed years ago.
Missed-bin reduction
Real-time verification catches misses during the shift — before the complaint call.
Landfill reconciliation
Measured weights against receipts surface tipping-fee discrepancies you're currently paying.
Dispatcher capacity
Automated scheduling lets each dispatcher manage more routes without more stress.
FAQ
Common questions
Does this handle both residential and commercial collection?
Yes. Recurrence rules, bin-level tracking, and the Assignment Board support scheduled residential routes, commercial accounts, and mixed operations, including roll-off and dumpster work.
What happens when a truck breaks down mid-shift?
Remaining bins re-optimize onto other trucks automatically, and the affected shift is tracked as Incomplete with a full record of what was and wasn't collected.
Can it support diversion and sustainability reporting?
Per-stream tracking (waste, recycling, organics) produces the collection records that diversion reporting and net-zero commitments require.
How does landfill reconciliation actually work?
Each load's measured truck weight is matched to the corresponding landfill or transfer-station receipt. Discrepancies surface in reporting so tipping-fee invoices are verified rather than assumed.
