EcoTrack™ FAQ

For Councils

How does EcoTrack™ help reduce landfill costs?

EcoTrack™ educates the public on correct disposal in real-time, drastically reducing contamination and mis-sorting. This cuts landfill tonnage and associated fees.

Can we track scan activity in our area?

Yes. The EcoGov™ dashboard shows real-time scan data, location clusters, and historical trends to monitor public engagement and recycling impact.

Is there a cost to councils?

Pilot councils join for free. In the future, premium features may be offered on a tiered model. Basic public scan access remains free forever.

Can we integrate EcoTrack™ into our own recycling campaigns?

Yes — EcoTrack™ can be co-branded or embedded into your council’s existing environmental materials. Contact us to discuss integration options.
