What is container tracking software?
WeighPay container tracking manages roll-off boxes, bins, and yard assets by ID, status, customer site, and dwell time. Optional RFID and Bluetooth tags automate reads; barcode and stenciled IDs work without hardware. Every move updates the dispatch board and can open or close a scale ticket.
Know where every container stands
- Asset registry — Keep each asset’s size, type, tare, ownership, and operating notes together under one searchable record.
- Container status — See whether a container is available, on rent, scheduled, in transit, at yard, or in maintenance.
- RFID and Bluetooth tag support — Use RFID and Bluetooth tags to automate container reads where the workflow benefits from hardware.
- Barcode, QR, and stencil IDs — Track bins with a barcode, QR code, or a manually entered painted or stenciled number—no tag required.
- Days-on-site and utilization reports — Find assets that have sat too long and see how container availability and usage change over time.
- Map view of container locations — Give operations a location-oriented view of containers in the yard, on a route, or at a customer site.
- Dispatch job links — Attach the container ID to delivery, swap, and pickup jobs so the board reflects the asset that is moving.
- Scale ticket and material links — Link an inbound container to its scale ticket and material grade when the truck returns to the yard.
- Maintenance and out-of-service flags — Keep damaged or unavailable assets out of active dispatch planning until they are ready to return.
- Customer-site inventory visibility — See the containers assigned to a customer site so service, rental, and inventory conversations start with the same facts.
From a container ID to the dispatch board
The delivery, swap, or pickup job carries the container context with it. When the job closes, the asset status and location have a clear operational trail.
From the inbound bin to the scale ticket
When a truck returns, the container can identify the inbound work and carry into the scale ticket, material grade, and downstream transaction record.
Container tracking software FAQ
Do I need RFID tags on every container?
No. RFID and Bluetooth tags are optional. WeighPay can track a container through barcode, QR, or manual stencil ID workflows when tags are not the right fit for every asset.
Can WeighPay track bins with only a painted number?
Yes. A painted or stenciled number can be recorded as the container ID and used in the registry, dispatch jobs, customer-site inventory, and scale-ticket workflow without extra hardware.
How does container tracking connect to dispatch?
The container ID can be attached to a delivery, swap, or pickup job so dispatch sees which asset is scheduled to move. Completing the job updates the container’s status and location context.
Can a container ID open a scale ticket when the truck returns?
Yes. An inbound container can be linked to the scale ticket and its material grade when the truck returns, keeping the move, the asset, and the weight-based transaction connected.
What reports show idle or missing containers?
Days-on-site and utilization reports help operations spot assets that have sat too long, while the registry, status, location view, and customer-site inventory provide the context to investigate missing or underused containers.
