GETTING SOME OF YOUR MONEY BACK: PART 2
Here is what Scott O'Berry had to say about how they use WeighPay's "bestmade" software to operate their turn-key recycling company in Lansing Michigan, proving that they understand what it means to "get some of the money back" before the customer leaves the recycling center.
Lansing Recycling, is setting the high mark on what a full service modern day recycling company should operate like in 2017. Using the WeighPay software solutions we are able to operate all facets of our recycling business.
- Purchasing scrap metal with automated state compliance rules built in to ensure that all images are captured and the customers are paid in the fastest way possible.
- Invoicing customers for waste they are dropping off.
- Point of Sale when selling used items in our 2nd hand store.
Lansing Recycling Center is unique as we use both sides (buy/sell) of WeighPay, as we operate a transfer station and scrap metal recycling center on the same property. We pay money for scrap metals and receive money when accepting debris disposal or selling items in our 2nd hand store says Scott O'Berry.
For years, we looked for an affordable yet complete POS system to streamline our business and comply with our state scrap metal regulations. We came across PopScrap.com and were eager to implement their system into our business processes.
How Lansing Does it...
Workstation 1: Upon entering the yard customers are greeted and directed to the correct area of the facility. At this point the customer info is captured and or retrieved from the WeighPay Mobile app and the products are weighed. We also capture the customer fingerprints, customer image, product image and customers electronic signature, these images are all captured in seconds and then stored in our WeighPay Online back office for later retrieval, not only keeping us state compliant but also allowing our managers the ability to review transactions at a later time.
Workstation 2: At this point the cashier will pay the customer using cash, check, wire transfer or a pre-paid visa card and the scrap metal is processed and placed into containers for resale.
U-FILL | WE HAUL
Adding a U-FILL | WE HAUL trailers to our business has helped grow our business and helps home owners and businesses clean up their properties. Providing the transportation of the trailer makes it a simple decision to do business with Lansing Recycling.
Our 2nd hand store is where we sell many used items that are salvaged from our debris and scrap metal operations creating another income stream and helping the environment and the landfill by selling or re-purposing the usable items that can be reused.
Customers love shopping for our used items, gives us more time to have a relationship with the customer insuring that they will return the next time.
As for the transfer station, team members sort the debris and we recycle as much as possible and we charge the customer for the trash using cash,check or our integrated credit card machine to finish the transaction. Customers love how fast and accurate the WeighPay system is.
PopScrap.com Inc., has greatly streamed lined our process making it much easier to move customers thru our facility in drastically less time.
