Use cases / Landfill Diversion
Build a diversion plan you can measure
Start with the materials leaving your sites and the evidence behind their destination. Evaluate recycling and organics options before setting a target.
The decision behind the data
A diversion goal needs a defensible baseline
Collection does not necessarily mean recovery. Missing weights, inconsistent periods, and unconfirmed destinations can make progress difficult to explain.
A practical review sequence
- Establish a baseline using consistent periods and units.
- Confirm accepted materials and handling requirements with providers.
- Track changes separately from estimates and unverified recovery claims.
Prepare for the audit
Gather your records
Weight tickets, destination records, service costs, and local recycling or organics acceptance criteria.
