Review from Aalborg Zoo with Anders

At Aalborg Zoo, the service team faces high pressure during peak visitor periods. In this case study, Anders explains how Bigbelly the team manage waste more efficiently and keep the area clean in an environment with many visitors.

Fascinating environments at Aalborg Zoo 

Aalborg Zoo is a place that attracts many visitors, especially during peak times of the year. In such environments, waste management quickly becomes an important part of the visitor experience. With Bigbelly , the service team Bigbelly better equipped to keep the area clean, set the right priorities, and manage waste more efficiently on a day-to-day basis.

When a large number of visitors put a heavy strain on the service organization

Aalborg Zoo sees many visitors in late summer, which puts extra pressure on the service team. In settings such as zoos, parks, and other tourist attractions, the amount of waste can vary greatly depending on the season, weather, weekends, and events. This makes it difficult to plan traditional waste collection schedules with precision.

Bigbelly by combining higher capacity with digital status information. The service team gains a better overview of which units need to be emptied and can focus their time on the right locations instead of checking everything manually.

Anders talks about his experience with Bigbelly

In this case study, Anders, who works at Aalborg Zoo, shares his experience with Bigbellys waste management platform. The personal perspective is valuable: it makes the case study more concrete and shows how the solution works in real-world operations—not just at the product level.

This should be the main focus of the page. Not “We have smart trash cans here,” but rather:

“Here’s how Bigbelly affects Bigbelly of the team that actually manages the site.”

Smart Waste Management for Zoos, Parks, and Tourist Attractions

Aalborg Zoo is a good example of an environment where waste management, the visitor experience, and day-to-day operations must all function in harmony. Full trash cans, litter around the bins, and unnecessary inspection rounds affect both the staff’s daily work and the guests’ impression of the place.

With Bigbelly , tourist attractions Bigbelly take a more data-driven approach to waste management. The solution is particularly well-suited for locations with fluctuating usage, high visitor volumes, and a need to keep public spaces clean without placing an unnecessary burden on the service team.

"It's the newest technology and we're really happy for them. Now it's just a garbage can but I'm really fascinated by them here!"
