What is Waste Flow Management?

Waste Flow Management is the daily operation of a property's waste system — the movement, condition and collection-readiness of waste from the moment a resident disposes of it to the moment a hauler removes it.

It is not janitorial cleaning, and it is not waste hauling. It is the operational discipline that sits between the two, and in most managed properties nobody formally owns it.

Every waste point is part of the flow.

Interior & Exterior Bin Collection + Bag Refresh

Waste doesn't only enter your building's system through the chute. PORTER can service designated interior and exterior satellite bins, collecting waste, refreshing liners and moving material into the property's centralized waste stream.

From the lobby receptacle to the exterior parking bin, every designated waste point becomes part of one coordinated operation.

One property. Multiple waste points. One managed flow.
