BINWEIGH 03 FAQ

Glossary

Is the BinWeigh 03 system certified for charging by weight?

Yes.  BinWeigh 03 is fully certified in the UK and EU for charging by weight per bin.

What type of vehicles is BinWeigh 03 suitable for?

BinWeigh 03 is suitable for use on most types of rear end loading refuse vehicle where the lifter is "weighing ready".  If you are unsure about this please ask the manufacturer of the lifter or contact us for assistance.

Does the lifter need to be stopped in order to weigh a bin?

No.  BinWeigh 03 is a dynamic weighing system so there is no pause or delay caused to the lifting cycle.  This allows vehicles to be quicker and more efficient on their routes.

How is the weighing data stored?

The data is stored locally on the vehicle for access using a pen drive, but it is also transmitted in real time via the cloud to BinWeigh 03 servers allowing optimal use of the data for real-time billing and vehicle load management.

Can BinWeigh 03 monitor whether the correct type of waste is being collected i.e. recyclable or non-recyclable for example?

BinWeigh 03 has an optional Contamination Detection System which helps to lower contamination in recycling bins, making the segregation of the recyclables easier, lowering the total cost of the process.

VanWeigh units are worth their weight in gold!

I have just ordered our fourth VanWeigh system in two years for our growing fleet of VW Crafters. VPG Onboard Weighing fitters are polite, courteous and well trained in their knowledge of the units being fitted. Vehicles are left clean, tidy and ready for work. 

The VanWeigh units themselves are worth their weight in gold. There is no fiddling about to add up weight, just load the vehicles and the unit does the rest. Drivers can see straight away if they need to alter their load to spread the weight.
