Waste Planner Lite; the smart solution for smart cities
How will cities make waste collections sustainable?
The world’s urban population is expected to double by 2050. This will account for 68% of the global population, according to the European Commission. With this growth comes the consumption of resources to produce more material goods, and consequently, the more people, the more waste generated. The sheer volume of waste produced globally is estimated to double over the next ten years.Transitioning to the model of the smart city
In managing this waste, municipals and waste management companies cannot afford to think short-term. They must be visionaries, tasked with finding long-term solutions. This is the only way to create liveable cities as populations grow. Part of what makes a city liveable is the health and wellbeing of residents, which are contributing factors to feeling rooted and invested in communities. But to make a city more liveable, municipals and waste management companies have to create a sustainable environment and the infrastructure to support it.
Visionary leadership understands that traditional schedule-based waste collections are already insufficient – and inefficient, even adding to pollution problems that create health issues. It’s these municipals and companies who understand that technologies will make them agile. With agility comes the ability to address waste management needs for the long term, while transitioning to the model of the smart city.
Tighter government legislation will make this inevitable, but municipals and companies who adapt now will make the transition easier and more cost-effective. For instance, sensor-based containers and wheelie bins equipped with RFID tags give you full visibility into your waste collections, so you can see immediately how to improve your processes.
At AMCS, we’re helping forward-thinking municipals and waste management companies consider their next moves. We invite you to explore the content here, which explains technologies to achieve smart waste management. We’re also happy to talk to you and answer any questions.

Extract maximum value by driving efficiency through route optimization, asset management, and real-time visibility of the collection service progress.

Schedule-based waste collections: It’s time to do better

With the growth of our cities’ populations, we can no longer sustain traditional, schedule-based waste collections.
It’s not only a burden on our environment, but also your operating costs. It’s time for bold action. That means digitalising your collections. Start with sensors that monitor fill levels of containers so that you make collections when they need emptying, and only then. This is how you can make a difference.
It’s a new world: Dynamic waste collection
In order to make waste collections sustainable, you need to look at technologies driven by IoT, like dynamic waste collection.

In order to make waste collections sustainable, you need to look at technologies driven by IoT.
Dynamic waste collection liberates you from old, inefficient ways of working by automating processes and collecting data. The analysis of that data in turn helps you reduce waste collection frequency while improving your service and reducing your operating costs. This is about making life better not only for residents but for the people who manage waste.
