WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Bryan Hurley, Public Services Foreman
“ShareNet’s Sidekick mobile system has been really handy with the bulk pickup. We’ve saved tremendously on fuel costs, about 1/3 within the first year we’ve used it. It keeps our trucks from running all over town. They can go directly to where the material is, get it out of the citizen’s way, and get it where it needs to be. It’s also better for our drivers, a whole lot less time-consuming. We use it for our bulk pick up of garbage items, leaves and brush, and appliances. By using ShareNet we can keep the materials separate for proper disposal and documented in real-time.”
D.J., Sanitation Bulk Pick up – Knuckleboom Crane Operator
“I operate the Knuckleboom machine in Oxford and pick up large debris, brush, furniture, and I use the ShareNet Sidekick App. On the App, I tap what I’m picking up, simply take a snapshot of the debris, and it records it for me. It makes the work so much more efficient and easily documented.”
Bulk Item Pick Up
Bulk Pick-Up Documented with ShareNet Sidekick “1 Tap” Mobile Application
Public Works Directors and Solid Waste Managers see tremendous value in having garbage collection crews document bulk pick-up issues in the field, but doing so can be time-consuming. Drivers may only have 40 to 50 seconds between trash carts but stopping to type or write up a bulk pick-up work request, code violation, or cart takes more time than that. However, having these records is extremely helpful when responding to customer complaints. Using the “1 Tap” capabilities of the ShareNet Sidekick App makes documenting these issues fast and easy for garbage collection drivers. All they have to do is tap a button.
Bulk Pick Up Streamlined using GIS Mapping with ShareNet Sidekick “1 Tap” App
There may be multiple sources of bulk pick-up requests and having that information in a centralized system that utilizes GIS mapping will maximize the effectiveness of the bulk pick-up route – saving on time, fuel costs, and wear and tear on the equipment!
Bulk Pick-Up Efficiency aids in Processing and Billing using ShareNet Sidekick “1 Tap” App
Bulk pick-up often requires different billing scenarios. Whether the bulk solid waste pick-up is free or if there is a charge, that data is visible and captured with ease. Bulk Item Pick-up Drivers can use the map view or a work order list sorted by the distance to their truck. This makes pick-up routes much more efficient and easier to navigate.
Trash Cart Management
Track Carts, Bins, and Roll-Off Dumpsters with Ease and Flexibility
Solid Waste Management Directors find great benefits in utilizing the ShareNet asset and maintenance application to manage trash, recycling, and green waste residential carts, bins, and commercial roll-off dumpsters.
- Track where carts, bins, and dumpsters have been delivered or removed
- Track cart, bin, and dumpster inventory at the yard
- Track cart, bin, dumpster repairs, and their maintenance

Solid Waste Fleet Maintenance
Manage and Maintain your Solid Waste Fleet with Confidence
Fleet Management Directors need their equipment to be running without issue, and utilizing the ShareNet Fleet Maintenance capabilities allows them to keep on top of scheduled and unplanned maintenance.
- ShareNet greatly aids in tracking pre-trip inspections, running hours, and maintenance
- ShareNet assists in automatically creating preventative maintenance work orders (i.e., based on running hours, odometer, or timeframe)
