Recycling operations, finally under control from intake to invoice
Track every pickup request from submission to collection, convert recovered material into purchase orders and CRM opportunities, and report ESG impact — all inside Odoo.
The problem
Waste and recycling teams juggle pickup requests across email, phone calls, and spreadsheets. Nobody has a single view of where each request stands, follow-ups get missed, and the value of recovered material is never cleanly tied back to a purchase or sale.
The solution
Recycling & Waste Management gives coordinators one status dashboard for every request, automated email updates for customers, and one-click conversion of collected material into a CRM opportunity and a purchase order — so operations and financials stay in sync.
Everything a recycling operation needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Customer Pickup Requests
Capture pickup or drop-off requests from the backend or the customer portal, with waste items, quantities, pickup address, and access notes on a single record.
Status Dashboard
A kanban board grouped by status shows every request from draft to done, with weight, value, and urgency visible on each card.
One-Click CRM Opportunity
Turn any request into a CRM opportunity in a single click, carrying over the customer, expected revenue, and a summary of the waste items.
One-Click Purchase Order
Generate a purchase order for the recovered recyclable material directly from the request lines, without re-entering data in Purchase.
Waste Material Catalog
Organize recyclable products into categories with recyclability flags and CO2 factors, and flag any product as a waste material for use on requests.
ESG & Diversion Metrics
Every request automatically computes CO2 saved and landfill diversion rate from its waste items, so environmental impact is visible request by request.
Automated Email Notifications
Customers receive an automatic email when a request is submitted, scheduled, and completed, so staff never have to chase status updates by hand.
Customer Self-Service Portal
Customers submit new pickup requests and review their full request history and status online, cutting down inbound status calls.
Pivot & Graph Analytics
Built-in pivot and graph views break down weight, value, and CO2 saved by request type and status for quick operational reporting.
How it works
Submit a Request
A customer or coordinator creates a pickup request with waste items, quantities, and the pickup location.
Triage & Schedule
Coordinators review the status dashboard, set a pickup date, and move the request to Scheduled.
Collect & Complete
The request moves through In Progress and Collected as work happens, with automated emails keeping the customer informed.
Convert to Revenue
One click creates a CRM opportunity and a purchase order for the recovered material, linking operations directly to the books.
Frequently asked
No sales fog. If your question isn't here, email us and we'll answer it the same way.
No. Recycling & Waste Management runs on Base, Mail, Portal, Product, CRM, and Purchase only. Recovered material value is tracked through purchase orders and request lines, so no stock module is required.
