Korvatrack tracks collection trucks, roll-off containers and hauling equipment so waste and recycling operators can verify service, control costs and locate containers.
Waste and recycling operators run heavy vehicles through fixed routes day after day, and the cost of each route depends on how well it is executed. Korvatrack provides GPS fleet tracking for collection trucks and haulers, showing position, stops and idling on a live map, with trip history that documents every route as it was actually driven. Supervisors review the results the same day.
The business also depends on containers, bins and roll-off dumpsters that are placed at customer sites and must be found again later. Battery-powered trackers attach to roll-offs and similar assets, so dispatchers know which container is where. Hard-wired trackers serve the heavy trucks, and the same alerts, reports and maintenance reminders apply across the fleet. Together these tools give dispatch and operations a single view of vehicles and containers.
Customers and municipalities may claim a pickup was missed. Without a record of where the truck went and when, the hauler has difficulty confirming that a route was completed.
Roll-off dumpsters and containers sit at customer sites for days or weeks. Finding the right one for a swap or pickup takes time, and units left behind earn nothing.
Collection trucks stop and start constantly, run auxiliary equipment and accumulate engine hours quickly. Maintenance that follows only the calendar misses the real workload of these vehicles.
Extended idling and unplanned detours increase fuel use on routes that are already costly to operate. Managers lack a reliable way to compare drivers and routes.
Trip history playback and stop records show the path and timing of each route. Operators use the data to answer missed-pickup claims and support reporting to municipal or commercial clients.
Battery-powered trackers mount on roll-off dumpsters and containers and report location. Dispatchers can identify the correct unit for each swap and see containers that have sat in one place for too long.
Hard-wired trackers report engine activity, and maintenance reminders can be set by mileage, engine hours or date. This keeps heavy trucks on a service plan that matches actual use. Shops schedule work calmly.
Idling alerts, speeding alerts and harsh driving alerts highlight habits that raise cost. Reports by driver and vehicle give supervisors facts for coaching and for route adjustments. Coaching becomes easier and fairer for drivers across routes.

Korvatrack serves this industry nationwide. A selection of the cities we cover:
Yes. A battery-powered tracker mounts on the roll-off or container and reports its position on a schedule. Dispatchers see every unit on the live map and receive movement alerts if one leaves its assigned location unexpectedly. Owners see which containers are idle and which are due for a swap.
Trip history shows each truck's path, stops and times. When a customer or municipality says a pickup was missed, the operator can review the route for that date and show whether the truck reached the address. That evidence usually settles the matter quickly.
A hard-wired tracker is the usual choice because it draws power from the vehicle and stays concealed. It reports ignition and engine activity, which supports idling reports and maintenance reminders based on engine hours or mileage. Reports then summarize use by truck for review.
