Waste Container Types

Waste container types can be customized based on waste type, expected contents, and volume. When container types are pre-defined within the system, it allows end users to easily choose the appropriate container for their needs. Standardization reduces “ad-hoc” container creation and streamlines the process for creating new containers.
