Overview
HWRC site management is increasingly supported by mobile technology, helping teams reduce manual processes and manage visitor access more consistently.
Whitespace’s mobile digital forms enable HWRC sites to operate without paper, reduce time spent at the gate, and maintain a clear audit trail of who has entered the site and what has been deposited.
Paperless processes at the gate
Mobile forms are used on site to capture visitor and waste information as vehicles arrive. This removes the need for manual records and ensures information is recorded consistently and accurately.
For chargeable waste, digital forms can automatically calculate costs based on waste type and quantity. Payments can then be taken outside of the mobile application, with a reference number recorded or a photo of the receipt captured, creating a complete audit record.
Permit checking and controlled access
A permit checker form allows site operatives to scan a barcode or enter a reference number to validate a visitor’s permit. The system displays relevant information, including whether the visitor is permitted to enter the site and what waste types they are authorised to deposit.
Once a permit has been used, it is automatically marked as consumed. If a visitor attempts to re-enter using the same permit, this is clearly visible to the operative at the gate.
