Evidence missed collections and wasted journeys in seconds.

Waste and recycling providers are regularly challenged when collections are missed or visits cannot be completed. Blocked access, locked gates, contaminated bins, overloaded containers, unsafe loads, no waste available, or site closures — without evidence they all become disputes.
