The Pioneer Compactor Monitor Allows Multi-family Property to Renegotiate

A multi-family building in Nashville was set to a strict hauling schedule every Monday and Thursday and facing a minimum charge of $320 per haul. This resulted in expensive trash invoices and low-tonnage hauls twice a week.

How did we improve it?

Once the Pioneer Compactor Monitor was installed and learned about the compactor’s usage patterns, there was enough data to reach out to the vendor and renegotiate its strict hauling schedule. Due to the vendor's mandatory schedule, this building could not go to on-call hauls. However, the monitor predictive model proved that there was no need for twice-weekly hauls. This allowed the building’s manager to negotiate and change the schedule to once a week.

The results?

Trusting the compactor monitor allowed this multi-family building to change its ineffective schedule and create savings opportunities within the vendor’s guidelines. After a year of usage— even within the mandatory weekly hauls—the Pioneer Monitor increased average pickup tonnage by 13% and reduced hauls by 12%. These changes created $2,549 in trash invoice savings.
