Weighbridge activity is one of the most important sources of data in a waste business.
For waste sites, yards, quarries, recycling businesses, scrap metal sites and transfer stations, the weighbridge records what comes in, what goes out, who brought it, what it weighed, which product or waste type was selected and which customer, haulier or account it relates to.
As the waste industry moves towards more digital records, this information is becoming even more valuable.
Midsoft’s MidWeigh weighbridge software helps businesses move away from disconnected manual processes by bringing weighbridge transactions, tickets, customers, products, pricing, invoices, reports and integrations together in one system.
For businesses preparing for digital waste tracking, MidWeigh can help improve data accuracy, reduce paperwork and create a clearer record of site movements.
MidWeigh is Midsoft’s weighbridge software solution.
It is designed to do far more than simply log weighbridge transactions. It helps make the day-to-day running of a site quicker, simpler and more organised.
MidWeigh is suitable for businesses such as:
The software is flexible, quick to use and designed to support the practical requirements of busy site operations.
MidWeigh can help manage:
Digital waste tracking depends on accurate, structured waste movement data.
For many waste businesses, the weighbridge is where some of the most important information is confirmed.
A weighbridge transaction can help show:
If this information is captured manually or stored separately from the rest of the business, it can create unnecessary admin and make records harder to rely on.
MidWeigh helps by connecting weighbridge data with tickets, invoices, reports and customer records.
This gives operators a stronger foundation for paperless processes and digital waste tracking preparation.
Manual weighbridge processes can create delays and errors.
A traditional process might involve manually entering vehicle details, writing or printing tickets separately, filing paperwork, rekeying information into accounts software and producing reports from spreadsheets.
This can lead to problems such as:
MidWeigh is designed to reduce these issues by helping site teams manage movements quickly and consistently.
Instead of treating the weighbridge as a separate manual process, MidWeigh helps make it part of a connected digital operation.
MidWeigh allows users to manage movements quickly, with very little typing required.
This is important on busy sites where vehicles need to move through efficiently and records need to be accurate.
By reducing manual entry, the system can help:
For digital waste tracking preparation, this matters because the quality of the record depends on the information captured at the point of activity.
The easier and more consistent the process is, the more reliable the data becomes.
MidWeigh can start a ticket by entering the vehicle registration.
The system can then automatically populate the remaining customer details for known vehicles, or allow the operator to select a customer for a new vehicle.
This helps reduce repeated typing and makes it easier to connect movements with the correct customer or haulier.
Accurate vehicle and customer information is important for:
When customer and vehicle data is captured properly, the business has a clearer record of who was involved in each site movement.
MidWeigh integrates with common weighbridge indicators to read weights directly.
This means weights can be pulled into the system without further manual input where the weighbridge is connected.
If the system is not connected directly to the weighbridge, weights can still be entered manually.
Direct integration helps reduce the risk of typing errors and speeds up the weighing process.
It can also help improve confidence in the data because the weight is recorded from the weighbridge indicator rather than being rekeyed separately.
For waste operators, this is a key part of creating more accurate digital records.
MidWeigh includes a maintainable products and services database with multiple pricing options.
When a product is selected, pricing can be automatically populated. If an EWC code is linked to the product, this can also be displayed.
This is particularly useful for waste and recycling businesses because product and waste classification data needs to be recorded consistently.
A structured product database can help:
As digital waste tracking becomes more important, consistent product and waste data will become increasingly valuable.
MidWeigh helps manage both completed and incomplete weighbridge tickets.
When a vehicle enters the site, ticket information can be saved ready for outgoing vehicle tareing.
The system also shows incomplete tickets or vehicles still on site.
This helps operators keep track of active movements and complete transactions more efficiently when vehicles leave.
For regular and owned vehicles, tare weights can be stored to allow one-way weighing.
This supports a smoother process for repeat vehicles and helps reduce unnecessary admin.
Weighbridge tickets are a key part of site operations.
They may be needed by customers, hauliers, accounts teams, compliance teams and site managers.
MidWeigh allows tickets to be printed directly from the software, replacing manual ticketing processes.
Tickets can be printed:
Tickets can also be exported to a customer web portal.
This flexibility helps businesses move towards paperless records while still supporting customers or processes that require printed documents.
MidWeigh can link to many existing camera systems to automatically record images of vehicles entering and leaving site.
It can also link to ANPR systems.
ANPR, or Automatic Number Plate Recognition, can help identify vehicles by registration number and support faster vehicle processing.
Camera and ANPR integration can help with:
For digital waste tracking and compliance preparation, this can provide useful supporting evidence alongside weighbridge transactions and tickets.
MidWeigh includes a Day Book that gives users a clear overview of work from different perspectives.
This can include views by:
The Day Book can also be used for detailed searches, such as finding a particular product moved between specific dates.
Results can be printed or exported to Excel for further analysis.
This gives operators better visibility of site activity and makes it easier to find the information they need.
For managers, this can support operational reviews, customer queries, product analysis and compliance checks.
Good reporting is one of the main benefits of weighbridge automation.
MidWeigh includes flexible reporting, allowing users to run comprehensive reports such as:
This is important because digital waste tracking, compliance and management control all depend on accessible, reliable data.
When weighbridge records are stored digitally, reporting becomes faster and more useful.
Instead of manually compiling information from tickets or spreadsheets, teams can use the data already captured through normal site activity.
MidWeigh includes a flexible invoicing system.
Invoices can be created individually or in batches, helping accounts teams reduce manual work.
Invoices can be printed or emailed individually or in batches, in the format required by the business.
This helps connect site activity with financial processes.
For waste businesses, this can reduce the time between completing a transaction and raising an invoice.
It can also help reduce errors caused by rekeying ticket information into separate systems.
MidWeigh can share transaction details with accounting systems such as Sage, QuickBooks and Xero.
This helps reduce duplicated data entry and improves the link between weighbridge activity and financial records.
Accounting integration can support:
For SkipTrak customers, invoices can also be linked to SkipTrak to simplify the accounting process.
This is especially useful for businesses using both skip hire and weighbridge software as part of a connected waste operation.
MidWeigh includes an optional online portal that allows customers to download reports, tickets and invoices.
This can reduce the number of calls to the customer service team because customers can access key documents themselves.
A customer portal supports a more paperless way of working by making documents available digitally.
It can help customers access:
For waste businesses, this improves customer service while reducing routine admin.
MidWeigh includes stock management through its maintainable products and services database.
This helps businesses manage products, services and pricing options in a structured way.
For sites handling different materials or products, this can support better control over:
This is useful for yards, quarries, scrap metal sites and waste operations that need to understand what is moving through the site.
Weighbridge tickets and waste transfer notes often support the same wider compliance picture.
A waste transfer note records a waste transfer. A weighbridge ticket can support that record by confirming the weight, vehicle, date, time, product or material and customer or haulier involved.
When these records are disconnected, it can be harder to build a complete audit trail.
MidWeigh helps by creating structured weighbridge records that can be searched, reported on and linked to the wider business process.
This supports:
Waste sites and transfer stations often rely heavily on weighbridge activity.
Incoming and outgoing materials need to be weighed, categorised, recorded, ticketed, invoiced and reported accurately.
MidWeigh can support these businesses by helping manage:
Because the weighbridge is such a central point in the operation, improving this process can create benefits across the whole site.
MidWeigh is also suitable for quarries, yards and scrap metal sites.
These businesses often need to process repeat vehicles, manage product pricing, produce tickets, create invoices and report on product movements.
MidWeigh can help by connecting:
This gives operators a clearer view of daily movements and reduces reliance on manual paperwork.
Weighbridge automation is a practical step towards paperless operations.
A traditional weighbridge process may involve paper tickets, handwritten notes, manual filing, spreadsheet reports and rekeying into accounts software.
MidWeigh helps reduce this by digitising and connecting key parts of the process.
This can include:
This does not mean every paper document has to disappear immediately.
Instead, it gives the business a more reliable digital source of truth.
Businesses preparing for digital waste tracking should review how weighbridge data is currently captured and used.
Useful questions include:
If the answer to several of these questions highlights manual work or disconnected records, weighbridge automation is likely to be worth reviewing.
MidWeigh can support waste businesses and site operators with features including:
