Industrial Plant in North Carolina Increases Average Haul Weight by 296%

An industrial plant in North Carolina has two compactors on site. Each of them was reporting incredibly low tonnages of .02 and .05 (let’s not even address these tonnages) on their 2x/week haul schedule.. Their location manager wanted to cut trash spend and raise tonnage, so they decided to install a DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor.

The Low Tonnage Solution

This was not your average low-tonnage situation. Trash was not even being compacted because of how little there was when it was getting picked up. So, as soon as the DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor was installed and learned from the compactor usage patterns, change started.

Thanks to DSQ Pioneer’s predictive model, the location went from 2x/week scheduled hauls to on-call hauling. This meant going from two times per week to almost every 56 days.

The Compactor Monitor Results

Haul Reduction

By using DSQ Pioneer's predictive model, the location avoided 94% of its hauls. The time between hauls went from twice a week to about once every 56 days.

Net Savings

These avoided hauls saved the plant 75% on hauling costs to date.

Average Haul Weight Increase

By avoiding these very low-tonnage hauls, DSQ Pioneer increased the average tonnage by 296%.

The DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor

DSQ Pioneer predicts when the compactor will hit its fullness target and self-schedules the haul with the hauler. That replaces expensive, low-tonnage scheduled hauls with on-call hauling.

Its easy use and installation provide manufacturers with:

• Predictive hauling technology
• Real-time data insights
• Compactor fullness measurement
• Proactive haul schedule
