SMART SUSTAINABILITY WITH THE WORLD’S LEADING UNIVERSITIES


What do Harvard, MIT, Trinity College Dublin, University of California San Diego, Iowa State and many other globally renowned institutions have in common? They are all working in


partnership with BigBelly SmartBins, helping to revolutionise the way leading universities approach public space, waste and recycling. Through new smart data management technologies, BigBelly’s Wi-Fi enabled dashboards are creating real time information, benefiting both the environment and students and creating proven, financial results. Don Coughlan, CEO at BigBelly


UK commented: “Universities are a key global partner to BigBelly, in many ways mirroring the challenges most global cities are facing: the demand for smart data driven solutions, the need for beter planning and reporting, new infrastructures, smart technology to help overcome the global competition for talent, increased urban (campus) population and pressures on existing infrastructures. “We are already working


in partnership schemes with leading UK universities such as Aberdeen, Trinity College Dublin and Edinburgh and helping them achieve immediate operational and environmental benefits, improving their sustainability whilst making financial savings.

EVERY UNIVERSITY FACES DIFFERENT CHALLENGES. LET’S HEAR WHAT OUR PARTNERS SAY:


“This is a major step forward in access to recycling on campus and achieving the kind of clean, green campus we want.” – Larry Cook, Recycling Coordinator, Iowa State University


“The results have been nothing short of incredible, with waste collection being reduced from seven times per week to two.” - Bill del Vecchio, Georgetown University


“Trinity College was astounded when we reduced our frequency of collections by 72% by installing BigBelly Bins. This reduction has grown since we implemented the BigBelly online CLEAN system giving access to


 fullness alerts. Gull & vermin scattering litter across the campus has also been reduced by well over 60%.” - David Hackett, Trinity College Dublin


“We like the BigBelly bins because they can hold 6-8 times more litter than a non-compacting barrel. That means no unsightly, pest-friendly litter spilling out of the barrels and that Harvard produce 1/4 the greenhouse gas from vehicle trips to service the barrels, less vehicle noise and air pollution, and fewer times that a truck has to  - Rob Gogan, Recycling & Waste Manager, Harvard University


“We know from research that


students are increasingly basing their application and enrollment decisions on an institution’s commitment to sustainability and innovation. There is nothing more visible and impactful that your college can do than highlight its environmental credentials with no capital funding.” BigBelly SmartBins provide real


time data and due to 8X onsite compaction, create cost savings of over 70%, reducing collections by an average of 86% and helping reduce CO2 whilst easing traffic congestion. This helps universities help the environment, whilst saving money, reducing liter and producing cleaner public spaces. BigBelly has witnessed many


benefits from working with MIT since 2010, the biggest being reducing staff collection time from six hours a day to less than 30 minutes a day. Via its cloud-based Clean data management platform, the company has supported MIT in their sustainability goals, improved recycling, measured performance and reinforced their commitment to improved sustainability. The future is exciting with Wi-Fi


hotspots around campus creating new wireless connectivity on the move and the roll-out of wrapped and Livescreen enabled SmartBins that can share public information and adverts with students throughout the day. UB
