New AI tool helps cleaners detect bin or sack contamination instantly, using just a smartphone
A new tool is giving cleaning teams the ability to scan bins for contamination and provide instant feedback, without any extra equipment or disruption to their daily routine.
Peasy Bin Audit is a free, smartphone-based tool that uses AI to analyse the contents of any bin. By taking a quick top-down photo, cleaners receive an instant visual report showing contamination levels and which items should be removed.
With contamination charges rising and rejected bins becoming more common under Simpler Recycling, cleaners are often the best-placed people on site to detect problems early. Peasy makes it easy to take action in real-time and demonstrate added value to clients.
The tool is already being introduced by cleaning contractors looking to offer smarter, sustainability-driven services. By enabling cleaners to flag issues quickly, Peasy helps reduce waste costs, support compliance, and improve collaboration between cleaning and waste teams.
The free version is fully functional for day-to-day use, and a premium upgrade is also available for companies that want to track long-term trends, compare performance across sites, or provide detailed reporting with multiple waste streams.
Peasy is now inviting cleaning firms to explore how bin audits can become part of their daily service, without adding complexity or cost.
It can be white-labelled and co-branded too!
