PLATFORM INTERFACE MOCKUPS
A platform you switch on and use straight away — it automatically makes the existing business more valuable.
Because the platform already holds every customer relationship, it becomes trivially easy to sell them more.
A custom-built digital management platform designed specifically for your business:
✔ QUICKBOOKS CONNECTED: Every job, payment and invoice can sync automatically — no double-entry, no reconciling spreadsheets by hand.
| System Feature | Operational & Legal Benefit |
|---|---|
| Daily Route & Job Cards | Workers know their exact bin routes on mobile devices without paper run-sheets. |
| Mobile Clock-in / Clock-out | Automatically tracks exact worker hours per job and verifies minimum wage rules. |
| Automated Holiday Pay & Payroll | Auto-calculates 12.07% holiday accrual and generates verified QuickBooks payroll exports. |
| Owner/Manager Worker Profile | If the owner or manager also runs routes themselves, they get their own worker account — same clock-in/out and route tracking as any other worker. |
| Add Workers On The Fly | New team members added in minutes as the business grows — no separate system or spreadsheet to maintain. |
Direct, Effortless Messaging
Self-Service On-Demand
Not yet connected — this is the recommended payment provider for the platform, mapped against your existing Direct Debit customer base.
| Payment Method | Cost & Fit |
|---|---|
| One-off Card Payment (Stripe Checkout) | 1.5% + 20p per UK card transaction. Sent as a simple payment link via WhatsApp/SMS or the portal — no card details ever touch our system. |
| Recurring Direct Debit (Stripe Bacs) | Just 1%, capped at £2 per payment — ideal for existing fortnightly/monthly recurring customers already used to Direct Debit. |
| PCI Compliance & Security | Handled entirely by Stripe — the business never stores card numbers, removing a major compliance burden. |
| Payment Status Sync | Paid/due status updates automatically on the Owner Dashboard and syncs through to QuickBooks — no manual reconciliation. |
NEXT STEP: Register a Stripe business account (standard UK sole trader/Ltd verification) to activate live payments — the platform's payment screens are already built and ready to connect.
Local pubs, cafés, takeaways and care homes all carry legal waste obligations. A registered, digitally-tracked service turns compliance into a sellable product.
| Service / Capability | Why It's Valuable |
|---|---|
| Waste Carrier Registration (Upper Tier) | £154 for 3 years via gov.uk (Environment Agency), renewal £105 — enables legally collecting waste from third parties, e.g. used cooking oil. |
| Used Cooking Oil Collection | Sellable to pubs, cafés & takeaways. Requires a signed Waste Transfer Note per collection, kept 2+ years — a natural fit for platform automation. |
| Grease Trap Cleaning | Legally required for commercial kitchens (Building Regs Part H); typical cleaning cycle every 4–8 weeks. EHOs enforce under Food Hygiene Regs 2013. |
| Commercial Bin Deep Clean & Disinfection | Twice-weekly/monthly external bin disinfection package for food & hospitality venues — supports hygiene inspections. |
| Digital Waste Transfer Notes | DEFRA's Digital Waste Tracking becomes mandatory from Oct 2026 (England/Wales/NI). Auto-generating & storing compliant digital WTNs in-platform is a genuine differentiator, especially for care home clients. |
| Venue Compliance Checklist Flyer | Simple printed/digital flyer for local venues: bins clean, grease trap serviced, WTNs on file, clinical waste correctly excluded — "keep inspectors happy." |
BENEFIT: Non-compliance fines reach £50,000 under the Section 34 duty of care — being the trusted, documented compliance partner is a premium, recurring B2B revenue stream layered on top of the existing residential base.
Everything is built to scale your business.
Keep Bin Cleaning as your core baseline service.
Easily expand your service offerings within the platform — mostly to the same customer base.
BENEFIT: Increase revenue per customer automatically, without spending money on advertising or spending evenings selling manually.
Best if working seamlessly with an accountant
Best if managing tax self-sufficiently
