Q:
My compactor container is picked up on a regular schedule. So
what's the benefit of Waste Link?
A:
Major dollar savings! Chances are that most of the time when
your compactor is pulled, there's a lot more space available
in the container. With Waste Link, your compactor will automatically
call in for it’s own pick-up when it is actually full
and ready to be picked up.
Q:
How would the hauler be advised to schedule a pick-up for a
full container?
A: Waste
Link Corp. is in constant contact with the monitor that automatically
request pick-ups at just the right time and logs the results.
Pick-ups can be automatically requested via e-mail, Pager, Fax,
Phone or by notification to a PC.
Q: How can a Waste Link
Monitor reduce my hauling cost when I already wait until the
compactor is full before I call for a pick-up?
A:
The patented Waste Link system is the only accurate way to monitor
on-going capacity in a compactor container. It is not possible
to reliably determine fullness by watching a pressure gauge,
tapping the side of a container or marking the calendar. By
automatically calling in for a pickup only when the container
is actually full, Waste Link can greatly reduce the number of
pickups required.
Q:
If I don't call in for frequent pickups, don't
I risk overflows?
A: Just
the opposite with Waste Link! It's designed to contact the hauler
with plenty of time to spare. You'll never have to phone in
for emergency service, because the call will automatically go
out on time. |

Is my existing compactor compatible with Waste
Link?
A: The answer is "Yes” for almost all types and models
of compactors. Waste Link can be retrofitted to most new and
existing compactors - with minimal installation time involved.
Q: Is
my hauler compatible with Waste Link?
A:
Absolutely! Hundreds of haulers across North America, including
the largest hauling firms in the world, have customers using
Waste Link. In fact, many haulers recommend fullness Monitors
in their new contract bids, allowing them to offer the most
competitive pricing while improving their own efficiency.
Q: Besides
my compactor, what does the installation of Waste Link require?
A: Just a clean source of power and
a standard (analog) single phone line. Although we now offer
wireless monitors for a small extra charge.
Q:
Do I need to hire someone to install Waste
Link?
A: Probably not. Installation
should be easy for someone with basic mechanical and electrical
skills but Waste Link Corp. will handle the installation if
needed. |

Q:
Can Waste Link assist me in reconciling hauler’s
charges for pick-up service?
A:
Yes. You can view status reports which will show the dates and
time of pick-up activity, as well as records of the return of
the emptied containers, of any one – or hundreds –
of your compactor containers, at any time.
Q:
Can Waste Link assist me in early detection
of possible mechanical problems with a compactor?
A: Yes. Waste Link can assist in identifying
malfunctioning compactors, usually before they become a service
issue. Because Waste Link is constantly communicating with the
compactor monitor, our software will provide a report which
advises that the compactor is not operating up to manufacturer’s
specifications. Even phone line problems will be reported to
you.
Q:
Can I avoid weekend or Holiday pick-ups? Can I avoid unnecessary
pick-ups of partially filled containers? Can I avoid container
overflow if hauler is not notified of a pick-up early enough?
A: Yes. Waste Link reports provide the
capability to avoid all these problems, some as far in advance
as 1 month. |
