What is Star Refuse?
Star Refuse is a bespoke waste-operations platform Whealbit built and operates for a St Ives collection service. A driver app captures waste transfer notes, signatures and photos from the cab (even with no signal), and an operations dashboard tracks every collection from pick-up to deposit. It is built for one operator, not sold as a product.
The problem it solves
The problem
A real St Ives collection service was running its rounds on paper. Every commercial load moved needs a waste transfer note, and capturing that correctly from the cab, then proving compliance from collection to deposit, is close to impossible with a clipboard and a filing cabinet.
What we built
Whealbit built and operates a complete platform for the business: a driver app that captures transfer notes, signatures and photos on the round even when the signal drops, and an operations dashboard that tracks every collection from pick-up to deposit with the paperwork attached to each load.
Who it is for
This one is built for a single operator rather than sold as a product. It is designed around busy rounds and bin lorries instead of a tidy office desk, with waste transfer compliance generated and stored correctly on every load.
