Our Municipal Waste Management Software

Whitespace Municipal is the operational platform councils and contractors rely on to deliver waste and recycling services every day.

Designed around the realities of frontline service delivery, it provides a single system for managing daily collections, exceptions, assets and resident interactions – giving crews, managers and customer teams one clear, accurate view of what’s happening on the ground.

Rather than stitching together multiple tools, Whitespace Municipal replaces fragmentation with a reliable operational backbone that keeps essential services running with ease and confidence.

How it works

One system, one source of truth

Whitespace Municipal brings together routes, rounds, crews, assets, service requests and exceptions into one operational system that teams can rely on daily. Everyone works from the same information, reducing duplication, confusion and administrative overhead.

Designed for daily service delivery

Scheduled collections and ad-hoc work are planned, allocated and managed within the same system. Crews receive their work directly on in-cab devices, while managers and customer teams have real-time visibility of progress and issues as they arise.

Operational visibility, not just data

As work is completed, updates flow back into the system – giving back-office teams clear insight into missed bins, assisted collections, complaints and service exceptions. This allows issues to be identified early and resolved quickly.

Reporting that supports better decisions

Built-in reporting provides a clear picture of service performance, helping councils understand patterns, pressure points and opportunities for improvement – without manual reporting or spreadsheets.

Whitespace Municipal supports councils to deliver reliable, consistent waste and recycling services by simplifying operations, reducing admin and strengthening day-to-day control.

Municipal Waste Management Features

Round Sheets

These are automatically generated and sent directly to your crew’s in-cab device for easy route planning.

Ad-Hoc Requests

Simplify ad hoc request handling and notify waste teams instantly whilst they are out in the field.

Record Exceptions

Record useful waste data such as missed collections and contaminations, allowing you to identify areas of improvement for your waste collection services.

Notifications

Display important information on the in-cab device such as school, assisted collections, one-way roads and access restrictions.

Real-time Communication

Integration

Our municipal waste management software effortlessly links to your existing council software i.e Customer Relationship Management System (CRM).

90% of customer enquiries are dealt with at first contact...

…through the customer service centre due to the tight integration to the Councils CRM. The call centre staff have real time access to information such as next collection days and if any exceptions have prevented the bins being collected.
