An industrial facility in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, was operating on a fixed biweekly compactor pickup schedule, resulting in wasteful and unnecessary hauls. Without knowing how full the compactor actually was, the facility was incurring recurring charges regardless of actual need.
After installing the DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor, everything changed. The system immediately began tracking real-time fullness levels and revealed that the compactor hadn’t reached capacity even after 10 weeks.
Under the previous biweekly schedule, the site would have paid for five hauls during that period—all avoidable.
By switching from a set schedule to predictive monitoring, the Winston-Salem facility achieved:
DSQ Pioneer’s predictive model reduced 75% of pickups.
By eliminating scheduled hauls, the location has saved 75% of hauling costs.
Average tonnage has increased by 296% thanks to the DSQ Pioneer Compactor Monitor.
The location has reduced its GHG emissions by 75%
Thanks to DSQ Pioneer’s predictive model, the facility now forecasts pickups based on actual compactor fullness. When this case study was being written, the compactor was at just 49% full, with the next haul not needed for another three weeks. That means this site went from hauling every 14 days to projecting intervals of more than 70 days.
By eliminating unnecessary pickups, DSQ Pioneer helps industrial sites unlock savings, increase operational efficiency, and reduce environmental impact—all without disrupting day-to-day workflows.
