Add-On Integration

Samsara Integration

Combine eLogii's route optimization with Samsara's telematics, cameras, and tip sensors for provable, automated service verification.

Dual-Trigger Completion

A sensor event plus geofence location is required to mark a task complete.

Blocked Bin Detection

Detect obstructions and capture evidence when a bin cannot be serviced.

Auto Photo Capture on Failures

In-cab camera photos are captured and linked to every failed task for instant audit.

Operational Intelligence

Real-time telematics data feeds routing, safety scoring, and performance visibility.

Frequently asked questions about waste collection route optimization

The optimization engine analyzes all scheduled collections - residential, commercial, bulk, and recycling - across your entire service area, then calculates the most efficient routes and assignments in seconds. For waste, this means factoring in collection day patterns, vehicle capacity, disposal site turnarounds, traffic, and service durations. Routes can be built overnight in batch and re-optimized intra-day as reactive work comes in or trucks go down.

Every completion is confirmed through the driver app with GPS-stamped status, geofenced arrival detection, photos, and timestamps. Operations that run telematics with lift arm or tipping sensors can add dual-trigger verification through the Samsara integration: tasks auto-complete only when the sensor event occurs inside the correct geofence, which eliminates false positives from drive-bys.

The driver logs a failure reason (access blocked, container not present, contaminated load, or a free-text custom reason) with photo evidence through the driver app, and the failure is logged against the task and resident record for instant audit. With the Samsara integration, an in-cab photo is captured automatically.

Yes. Administrators can upload GeoJSON files directly through the platform interface to define service areas, operational territories, or restricted zones. Zones are editable, layerable, and color-coded, and are treated as hard constraints in optimization.

Most municipal waste deployments are live within 8-10 weeks. Configuration workshops define zones, collection day patterns, vehicle constraints, and integrations. Rollout typically starts with a pilot route or region before expanding citywide.

eLogii is ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR-aligned, and hosted on AWS with AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit. Customer data is isolated by unique system ID. Disaster recovery, encrypted backups, and annual restore testing are standard.

Yes. eLogii scales to 1,500+ vehicles. The platform runs on AWS with 99.95% measured uptime and optimizes over 750,000 stops daily across all customers. There is no upper limit on users, tasks, or routes.

The day's route redistributes automatically across the remaining trucks in the region, respecting vehicle capacity, zones, and service windows. Urgent collections can be inserted into live routes in seconds. Planners see the updated schedule instantly and can override if needed.

Public sector ready: eLogii is listed on the Carahsoft GSA marketplace, available via GSA, SEWP, ITES-SW2, NASPO, and OMNIA Partners contract vehicles.
