Cloud4WasteCloud4Waste connects IoT gateways directly to your compactors and balers to stream live telemetry — fill levels, cycle counts, pressure data, and per-material bale counts — then turns that data into predictive collection scheduling with confidence scoring, sustainability reporting tied to live commodity prices, and a live waste marketplace connecting producers and collectors with digital transfer notes, compliance, and dual customer and collector portals.
Explore Cloud4WasteWaste Cloud offers two products: a skip hire booking app (WastePrime) that lets customers order skip hire, grab hire, and muck-away online, and a city-focused digital waste management platform for Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) schemes. The company also operates as a nationwide skip hire and rubbish removal service.
Visit Waste CloudThe short version
Waste Cloud is a good choice if you want a simple customer-facing booking app for skip hire or a PAYT platform for a city. Cloud4Waste is a deeper operational platform — it reads live data from compactors and balers, predicts collections, and includes a full Collections Pro module for skip hire, dispatch, CRM, invoicing, and waste asset management. If you need a booking widget, Waste Cloud is lighter. If you need to run operations and know what your machines are doing, Cloud4Waste is more comprehensive.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does Cloud4Waste offer a skip hire booking widget like Waste Cloud?
Yes — through the Collections Pro module, customers can book skips, and you get the full back-office behind it: dispatch, driver app, waste asset tracking, invoicing, and compliance. Waste Cloud’s booking app is lighter and faster to deploy if you only need online ordering.
I run a city waste scheme. Which is better?
For municipal Pay-As-You-Throw schemes, Waste Cloud has a dedicated city platform built for that use case. Cloud4Waste is built for commercial waste operations (compactors, balers, skip hire) rather than municipal PAYT billing.
Does Waste Cloud read data from my machines?
No — Waste Cloud is a booking and ordering platform. It does not read live telemetry from compactors or balers. Cloud4Waste connects IoT gateways directly to your machines to report fill levels, pressure, and bale counts in real time.
Can I use both?
Yes. Some operators use a booking widget like Waste Cloud for customer-facing orders and Cloud4Waste for machine telemetry and back-office operations. If you want a single platform, Cloud4Waste Collections Pro covers bookings and operations together.
