How does PIN locate my skips?
We work with you to extract a download of your system, showing where your skips are located. We understand that this data will only be partially accurate. We visit every site that your system believes a skip is located and expect to capture 85% of your total fleet in the first visit.
We then monitor the other sites that your vehicles are visiting to identify and capture the skips that are not visible on your system.
We allow 2 return visits to capture 100% of your skip inventory.
Does PIN protect against container theft?
Whilst skip theft is a growing problem across the industry, our customer data shows very clearly that the much bigger opportunity lies in improving operational visibility and performance.
PIN comes in two broad configurations, one of which specifically identifies and tracks the movement of skips by unauthorised 3rd parties.
