RecycleID™ Waste Tracking

RecycleID™ is our smart waste-tracking solution built for multi-tenanted and multi-use sites. All data is pulled into our reporting suite, giving you complete visibility of what’s being thrown away, where, and by whom — all in real time.

Using our app, weighing platform and QR-coded sacks, you can track every kilogram of waste by tenant, store or area. That means fairer costs, cleaner recycling, and the insights you need to meet compliance with confidence.

RecycleID™ is part of First Mile's broader strategy to enhance urban sustainability and align with the growing trend of smart cities, digital waste tracking and zero-emission goals.

Good for the planet. Good for business.

Case study: 40 Leadenhall

At 40 Leadenhall, one of London’s newest landmark buildings, RecycleID™ was introduced to make recycling simple from day one.

With tenants moving in at different times and each with varying waste requirements, the challenge was ensuring a consistently high recycling rate, simple processes for occupiers, and reliable reporting to meet strict building accreditation standards.

The challenge

Multiple tenants, staggered move-ins and different recycling needs made consistent performance tricky.

The solution

We set up the app and weighing platform across waste rooms, added clear signage, and trained the cleaning team to use RecycleID™ with confidence.

The results

73% recycling rate achieved from the start
Six recycling streams, including paper towels
Simpler Recycling compliant
SMART Buildings accreditation achieved

Compliance made easy

Digital waste tracking will soon be mandatory across the UK. Luckily, RecycleID™ already does it for you.

You’ll get:

Real-time waste data by tenant or material
Verified Scope 3 emissions for your reports
Integration with government frameworks
Peace of mind knowing you’re always one step ahead
