Waste Sensors
Why WasteControl Sensors?
WasteControl has developed a diverse product range, enabling us to offer ultrasonic, radar, and optical sensors. This allows us to objectively meet your specific and unique needs, as each measurement technology comes with its own strengths and limitations.
WasteControl prioritizes data security and only recommends networks that ensure fully encrypted data protection, giving your company complete peace of mind. We understand the importance of transmission stability and network flexibility at reasonable prices.
However, every network provider comes with both advantages and disadvantages. That’s why we offer our customers a range of relevant options, allowing you to make the best decision based on your specific needs.

Flexible and integrable solution with full data ownership
WasteControl’s system is fully integrable with your existing IT infrastructure via an open API, ensuring that your company or municipality always retains full ownership of your data. With a flexible logistics system, you can choose to connect directly to your own software or use WasteControl’s proprietary application—depending on your specific needs.
Logistics Management
(Mobile app)
Track and optimize collection routes with WasteControl’s logistics app
Our logistics app, fully integrated with WasteControl sensors, ensures easy and seamless setup, monitoring, and route planning. Available on both iOS and Android, the app allows you to view the most efficient route to full containers—helping you avoid emptying bins that are only partially full or completely empty. With its user-friendly design, the app makes it simple to streamline operations, reduce unnecessary trips, and improve resource efficiency.
