How VisnLine AI + Goodbin Are Tackling Illegal Dumping (Bijplaatsingen) in the Netherlands

Illegal dumping (bijplaatsingen) remains a persistent and costly problem for Dutch municipalities. Waste left next to containers creates extra cleanup costs, damages public spaces, and frustrates residents and field teams.

SmartEnds is proud to announce our partnership with Goodbin.

Together we combine:

• SmartEnds VisnLine – rugged AI cameras and software that detect illegal dumping in real time

• Goodbin’s local expertise and workflow platform used by coordinators and fieldworkers

How the solution works

• VisnLine cameras are placed at communal bins, bring sites, and known dumping hotspots.

• The AI continuously analyses the area and detects when waste appears outside the containers.

• The moment illegal dumping is identified, an automated alert is generated with a timestamped image and exact location.

• The alert flows directly into Goodbin’s platform so coordinators and field teams can respond quickly — often within hours instead of days.

Benefits for municipalities

• Faster response times and reduced cleanup costs

• Fewer repeat dumping incidents at monitored locations

• Cleaner public spaces and higher resident satisfaction

• Clear evidence for enforcement and education

• Seamless integration into existing daily workflows

This partnership turns reactive “complaint-driven” cleanup into proactive, data-driven action. By bringing AI detection into the tools teams already use, we make it practical and scalable across Dutch cities.

Samen maken we buiten gewoon goed.
