WASTRAQ review
A broad operations platform for MRF workflows, collection, traceability and reporting.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
WASTRAQ brings waste collection and material recovery workflows into one platform for recyclers, municipal authorities, enterprises and material recovery facilities. Its scope extends from fleet, route and pickup activity to MRF weighing, sorting, inventory, quality checks and dispatch. Material tracking follows waste from source through recovery and recycling, with reporting for EPR, ESG and sustainability activity. That combination makes it most relevant to operators that need operational visibility alongside traceability and reporting, rather than a standalone collection scheduler.
The operational breadth is a key distinction: collection management sits alongside MRF processes, while QR/RFID support can identify materials and assets and AI-based recognition covers materials and contaminants. Web, iOS and Android access, plus a REST API and webhook integrations, provide several ways to connect teams and systems. Listed integrations include Xero, QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle, Google Workspace and Google Sheets. Buyers should assess whether those workflows fit their own sites and existing systems, especially if they need a narrower tool focused only on routing or only on facility processing.
WASTRAQ is cloud-based with mobile access, and the vendor describes a guided demo and pilot process rather than a self-serve trial. The pricing model is contact-sales, with usage-based pricing described by the vendor; there is no free plan. Published security signals include SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and two-factor authentication. Support channels include email, chat, tickets, phone and documentation, with 24/7 support listed. Organizations comparing options should weigh the breadth of workflows and reporting against the sales-led buying path: it is a stronger fit for operators seeking connected collection and recovery processes, while teams needing a simple single-purpose tracker may prefer a more focused product.
