Smart Waste Solutions arrive in Quimper
Future Street is delighted to announce the successful installation of five Bigbelly Smart Max stations in the city of Quimper, located in the heart of Brittany, France.
As cities continue to invest in smarter and more sustainable public infrastructure, Bigbelly Smart Max stations provide an innovative solution that helps improve street cleanliness, reduce operational costs and support environmental goals.
The newly installed recycling stations in Quimper deliver a range of important benefits for both residents and visitors:
Smarter Waste Capacity
Each Bigbelly Smart Max station features built-in compaction technology, allowing it to hold up to twice the capacity of a traditional street bin. This helps reduce overflow, maintain cleaner public spaces and improve the overall appearance of busy urban areas.
Reduced Collection Frequencies
With increased waste capacity comes fewer collection trips. By reducing the frequency of waste collections, the city can lower vehicle movements and reduce associated CO₂ emissions, contributing to a more sustainable waste management system.
Improved Street Cleanliness
The fully enclosed hopper design provides complete waste containment, helping eliminate wind-blown litter and keeping streets cleaner day in and day out. This is particularly valuable in preserving the natural beauty and charm of historic city environments like Quimper.
Supporting Cleaner, More Sustainable Cities
The introduction of our Bigbelly Smart Max stations reflects Quimper’s commitment to creating cleaner, smarter and more environmentally responsible public spaces, helping promote waste spearation and reducing contamination.
Future Street is proud to support cities and communities across Europe with smart waste management solutions that improve operational efficiency while enhancing the public realm.
