One Page Summary

cocycler brings collaboration in waste management


Cocycler is a new actor doing waste management in a collaborative wayWe raise awareness and help people and businesses get involved for the circular and local economy. We foster waste recycling by reducing logistics costs (sharing of storage spaces, reverse logistics), and bringing flexibility (on demand collection) .


to foster circular economy and PROMOTE eco responsible initiatives

Circular economy complexifies waste management : more types of wastes, more treatment types, more destinations... means more knowledge and more agility are required.

Municipalities need to deal with huge amount of wastes and therefore develop robust waste collection answers, rather than small scale tailor-made solutions... to the detriment of eco responsible-personal initiatives that could have emerged. 


with a collaborative, flexible and reasoned solution

These 3 principles combined make the solution environmentally friendly, economically acceptable, and attractive to its users.

Collaborative: allowing the reduction of logistics costs by sharing storage space and transport volumes;

Flexible: collection schedules are decided on demand;

Reasoned: thanks to the statistical analysis of the collected data, in order to better adapt the service to real needs, and identify ways of reducing costs upstream.
