Smart Waste Management · Travel Center and Public Transportation
Smart waste management for transit hubs makes it easier to keep entrances, waiting areas, and walkways clean. EWF ECO helps you combine smart trash cans, fill-level sensors, and recycling for train stations, bus terminals, and bus stops. Capacity, placement, and emptying are tailored to passenger flows.
Start with the everyday life of the place
Rush hour, traffic disruptions, and events can cause load conditions to change rapidly. Prioritize the locations where the containers fill up first.
Travelers are often short on time. Visible stations, clearly marked ticket slots, and consistent signage make it easier to choose.
Plan the placement and emptying of containers in coordination with the operations team to ensure proper access and mobility.
How the solution works
Combine appropriate containers with information on fill levels. This helps staff prioritize emptying and indicates where greater capacity or a different location may be needed.
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 waste in areas where travelers pass through, taking into account accessibility and the site's safety requirements.
Adjust the waste categories and capacity to accommodate waste from kiosks, cafes, and longer wait times.
Take into account varying loads throughout the day and accessibility for emptying.
Place stations where people naturally move between buses, trains, bicycles, and parking lots.
Waste sorting needs to be easy to understand. Use consistent labeling and collect relevant waste streams where food, beverages, and other waste are generated. Test the placement based on the actual path travelers take through the venue.
From Need to Successful Operation
Select the busiest entrances, waiting areas, or bus stops. Document both normal traffic and recurring traffic peaks.
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
Yes, it is possible to start with individual load points. The choice of containers or sensors depends on the site's use, service access, and technical conditions.
The placement and choice of products must be coordinated with the person responsible for the traffic environment. Base your decisions on the site’s requirements for safety, unobstructed passage, and service.
Yes, where they work well. Some may need to be supplemented with sensors, while others may require changes in capacity or location.
Plan procedures and access based on traffic flow. Supplementary information can help staff prioritize, but it must be combined with adequate staffing and well-maintained service routes.
