Landfill

Since 2011, the government has been exerting more pressure on businesses to reduce waste that is sent to landfill.

Landfill sites rely on accurate weight data to charge for waste disposal. A scale or weighbridge system at the entrance to the site weighs waste vehicles on arrival, records and verifies  load data and reweighs the vehicle once the load has been deposited.  Data is stored and can be transferred to back office systems in order to meet legislative reporting requirements and improve efficiency.

With both landfill tax and waste fraud on the rise, having an accurate, reliable weighing system that is robust enough to stand up to fraud is vital to the profitability of any landfill site.
