Better Waste Collection Starts Here: New Solver in ArcGIS Network Analyst
If you’re still printing out a paper map once a year and hand-drawing your waste collection routes, manually piecing together routes in ArcGIS Pro, or juggling disconnected point solutions to manage sanitation, there’s finally a better way.
Until now, Esri didn’t offer a purpose-built solution for the complex realities of curbside waste routing. That changes with the latest release of ArcGIS Pro 3.5. The ArcGIS Network Analyst extension now includes the Waste Collection Solver—a new tool designed specifically for residential waste collection workflows.
With this solver, solid waste and sanitation professionals can now plan more balanced, efficient routes that reduce travel time, cut fuel costs, and improve service delivery. Whether you’re managing citywide garbage pickup, coordinating recycling routes, or consulting on municipal waste operations, this solver helps streamline your planning and get more done with fewer resources.
