Smart Waste Management · Parks and Green Spaces
Smart waste management in parks and green spaces starts with the right capacity in the right place. EWF ECO helps you combine smart trash cans, fill-level sensors, and source separation for sunny weekends, picnics, and events. Customize placement and emptying schedules based on how the park is used throughout the year.
Start with the everyday life of the place
Swimming areas, picnic areas, and snack bars can experience sudden spikes in usage. Design the facilities based on the actual use of the site.
Fill level data can help prioritize among widely dispersed containers and improve emptying schedules.
Clear sorting and proper placement help visitors manage their waste while playing, eating, and resting.
How the solution works
Combine higher capacity at high-traffic locations with sensors where existing bins are suitable. Monitor usage over time to adjust placement and emptying schedules between peak and slower periods.
The right solution can combine several components. Product selection and connectivity are tailored to the site's specific conditions.

Smart trash cans for locations with varying waste volumes. Connectivity and compaction options are selected based on the model and type of waste.
Monitor fill levels in suitable existing containers. We’ll help you assess the conditions for installation and monitoring.
Collect relevant waste fractions using clearly marked chutes and labeling. Adjust capacity and emptying frequency for each station.
The right solution in the right place
Collect relevant waste streams near seating areas and food vendors.
Place the stations so that they are easy to find and use, with unobstructed walkways.
Plan for capacity and service access during hot days and when visitor numbers fluctuate significantly.
Assess the need for additional capacity and waste removal before, during, and after the event.
At picnic areas, kiosks, and swimming spots, the recycling bins need to be easy to find and understand. Choose recycling categories based on the type of waste and applicable requirements, and monitor labeling, improper sorting, and emptying procedures.
From Need to Successful Operation
Choose a park or a few locations where the amount of trash varies significantly. Document trash collection, littering, and differences between weekdays and weekends.
Customize bins, sensors, fractions, and placement. Determine who monitors the information and how emptying should be prioritized.
Compare waste collection, littering, and labor input. Use the results to adjust procedures and determine the next steps.

Questions and Answers
No. Start with the vessels where the load is high or difficult to predict. The other vessels can remain as they are if they function well under existing procedures.
Monitor usage over a representative period and adjust the emptying procedures. If there are significant seasonal variations, capacity and location may also need to be reviewed.
No. Compaction is a choice that depends on the model and fraction. Choose a solution based on the type of waste, the desired sorting method, and the on-site conditions.
Filling information can help you group pickups together and avoid certain unnecessary trips. At the same time, assess service routes, distances, and how visitors move around the area.
