Hybrid operating model

During opening hours, the site operates as usual: with staff on hand to handle all 28 waste categories. Outside these hours, the wiegon system takes over: barriers, access roads and areas are controlled automatically. This means residents can dispose of garden waste 24/7 — in a controlled, secure manner and without the need for staff.

Anyone arriving outside opening hours is identified via authorisation. The system opens only the access road to the green waste area; the rest of the yard remains locked. A control centre enables monitoring and control.

What the system offers

🔑 Digital access management
📋 Digital recording of deliveries
💶 Cost allocation based on usage
👥 Clear management of visitor flows
🖥️ Centralised control and monitoring via the control centre
🍃 Autonomous green waste collection

The result

The autonomous green waste collection service reduces the frequency of staff-led operations. The result is a courtyard that adapts to residents’ daily lives, rather than the other way round. With greater convenience, better service and no additional staffing costs.
