How iSustain Uses cieTrade to Deliver Smarter Waste Management

A Partnership for Progress in Waste Stream Visibility

At iSustain, we know that effective waste management requires much more than just hauling materials away. It also requires that businesses have the tools, insights, and expertise they need to maximize efficiency, reduce waste, and improve sustainability efforts. That’s why, since 2016, we have partnered with cieTrade to transform how we serve our customers.

By integrating cieTrade’s business management software into our recycling and waste management processes, we’ve enhanced the way we track waste streams, generate reports, and optimize logistics. This technology helps us offer more transparent, accurate, and streamlined waste management services while providing our clients with real-time data, improved reporting, and a self-service portal that gives them the information they need at their fingertips.

What is cieTrade, and How Does iSustain Use It?

cieTrade provides a powerful business management platform designed specifically for companies in the recycling and waste industry. The software automates waste tracking, improves financial reporting, and simplifies material flow management, allowing companies like ours to work more efficiently while delivering greater value to customers.

At iSustain, cieTrade serves as a centralized system that allows us to:

• Automate reporting and track waste data with greater accuracy.
• Improve logistics and material flow to ensure recyclables are processed efficiently.
• Provide customers with a self-service portal where they can access key data about their waste and recycling programs.

This technology doesn’t only make our processes more efficient. It also ensures our customers have better visibility into their waste programs while we handle the complexities behind the scenes.

How iSustain Uses Data to Help Customers Improve Waste Management

Advanced Reporting for Better Decision-Making

Accurate reporting is critical for businesses looking to optimize waste management. cieTrade’s platform allows iSustain to track every aspect of a customer’s recycling and waste streams, ensuring that businesses receive real-time data on material movement, sustainability benchmarks, and compliance tracking.

Rather than relying on outdated spreadsheets or manual data entry, we use cieTrade’s automated reporting tools to provide our customers with customized insights into their waste and recycling programs. We use this data to assess their sustainability impact, monitor trends, and refine their waste strategies. These improvements have already made a measurable difference for many of our clients, as seen in our success stories.

Optimized Waste Tracking and Logistics

Tracking waste materials is not only useful for compliance. It also ensures efficiency, can help reduce costs, and maximize sustainability efforts. With cieTrade, we are able to monitor material movement from collection to processing, allowing us to optimize logistics, reduce inefficiencies, and improve overall recycling performance.

While we manage the logistics and material flow through cieTrade’s software, our customers can focus on their core operations while knowing their waste is being managed effectively. Many of these tracking solutions also integrate with our specialized recycling programs, ensuring that materials are processed responsibly and sustainably.

Giving Customers Direct Access to Their Waste Data

The Self-Service Portal

While iSustain manages waste tracking, reporting, and logistics, we also believe that customers should have easy access to key data about their recycling and sustainability programs. That’s why cieTrade’s Self-Service Portal plays an important role in our services.

Through the portal, our customers can:

• View shipment details and service requests.
• Access invoices, pricing, and payment information.
• Monitor recycling performance with summary reports and material distribution charts.

This transparency empowers businesses to stay informed about their waste programs while our team continues to handle the day-to-day management and optimization of their recycling efforts.

Driving Innovation in Waste Management

For nearly a decade, our partnership with cieTrade has helped us refine and improve the waste management experience for businesses across industries. By leveraging cutting-edge data solutions, automating logistics, and providing greater transparency, we help companies focus on their sustainability goals without getting lost in the complexities of waste tracking and compliance.

“The success of our partnership with iSustain over the years demonstrates how combining industry expertise with innovative technology helps deliver smarter, more efficient waste and recycling solutions. With cieTrade, iSustain has continued to provide their customers with data-driven insights while helping them achieve their sustainability goals,” says David Haber, President at cieTrade Systems.

Through strategic collaborations like this one, which you can explore on our Partnerships page, we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in waste management.

A Smarter Future for Waste and Recycling

At iSustain, we are driven by a simple but profound goal: to help our customers achieve their sustainability objectives while continuously improving the processes that support them. By staying at the forefront of technology and building strong partnerships, we aim to set new standards for waste management—ones that not only benefit our clients but also contribute to a healthier planet. 

This collaboration with cieTrade has helped us reimagine waste management for the better. By embracing innovative technology, enhancing data transparency, and providing our customers with tools like the self-service portal, we’ve transformed what it means to run an efficient, transparent, sustainable recycling program. As we look to the future, we remain committed to innovation, collaboration, and delivering solutions that ensure a cleaner, more sustainable world for everyone.
