Michigan Industrial Plant Projected to Save Over $40,000 Annually With DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor

An industrial plant in Lansing, Michigan, is on track to save over $40,000 annually after installing the DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor on a single 40-yard compactor. Previously locked into a rigid three-times-a-week hauling schedule at $625 per haul, the site was incurring unnecessary costs for underfilled loads.

The Challenge

Each haul averaged only four to five tons, resulting in inflated weekly costs of approximately $1,875 in just hauls. Without visibility into compactor fullness, there was no way to optimize the schedule nor the budget.

The DSQ Pioneer Solution

After installing the DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor and placing the site on autopilot, the predictive model began learning compactor usage patterns and self-scheduling hauls only when necessary.

(After Just One Month on Autopilot):

Net Savings

Eliminating scheduled hauls will allow the plant to save over $40,000 in a year.
