The WM Recycling Services bale route tracking application (BRTA) is a proprietary software application designed to enable real time tracking, data sharing and transmission as it relates to recycling service performed at the brick and mortar, “behind the store” level. By connecting recycling haulers with the application and ultimately, Waste Management, redundant paperwork is replaced by a speedy, digital interface where record keeping and verification of related information is a priority. As interest in and the environmental impact of recycling grows, it is important that organizations continue to modernize how this type of business is transacted. WM is committed to doing its part to help achieve this objective.
