How does weight control by waste container work?

How does weight control by waste container work?

Urban waste collection scales for monitoring the weight of waste per container, in accordance with the PAYT model.
 

In order to promote waste separation and increase the percentage of recycled waste collected, an amendment to waste charges was approved on 11 January 2013, as is the case in other EU countries.

The fixed rate applied until now will become a variable rate according to the volume or weight of the waste produced, based on the polluter pays principle and the concept of shared responsibility.

There are several models/solutions for controlling the weight of waste produced. One such model is the weight control of individual or collective waste containers. For this model, there is the Urban Waste Collection Scale.

The Urban Waste Collection Scale allows the weight of waste to be controlled per container. This weighing system can be installed on various models of urban waste collection trucks, such as satellite, top loader, rear loader with lift, side loader or loader with crane.

Reliable, accurate and robust, the Waste Collection Scale allows weighing and communication of weighing data in real time. In addition, it does not alter any of the truck’s functionality, does not slow down the collection process and requires little maintenance.
