♻️ Distributors - Ecomaison bin management

🧭 Context


Ecomaison bins allow retailers to collect used products from the Furniture industry.
Their management must comply with precise rules to ensure sorting quality, logistical continuity, and regulatory compliance.

📌 Objective


Provide instructions to efficiently organize pickups and ensure proper on-site bin management.

🧩 Managing pickup requests


  • Requests must be made on day D before 3 p.m. from Monday to Friday for possible collection as early as D+1 from Monday to Saturday, with the choice of a half-day.

    Example: For a pickup on Monday, submit the request before Friday noon.

  • Option to specify an indicative time slot during the request.

  • The collector must respect the half-day, but is not required to collect within the specific time slot requested.

  • For the day following holidays, requests must be made on the previous working day before 3 p.m..

  • Specific delay: 5 working days for the pickup of 2 pallet boxes if collected by an operator.

  • Cancellation/modification requests can be made via the Extranet (minimum half-day prior).

📚 Golden rules for managing bins


  1. Capture all furniture flow

    • Ensure strict adherence to sorting instructions provided by Ecomaison.

    • Only deposit accepted products.

  2. Optimize filling

    • Trigger the pickup request based on the fill level.

    • Plan the request the day before for a collection on D+1 in the half-day.

    • Limit overly distant anticipations.

    • Cancel or modify the request via the Extranet if necessary.

  3. Facilitate sorting and recycling

    • If possible, dismantle furniture so that items do not protrude from the bin.

    • Encourage telephone exchanges between operators and retailers to manage contingencies.

  4. Ensure proper follow-up

    • Inspect the condition of the bin at drop-off (cleanliness, physical state).

    • Report any malfunctions in the Extranet.

    • Grant access to the Extranet to multiple people to streamline management.

    • Always sign transport forms.


Points of vigilance


  • Plan ahead for holidays and weekends to avoid any blockage.

  • Any non-compliant bins (refused waste, overflow) may be denied collection.

  • Hazardous waste (asbestos, solvents, paints, etc.) must never be deposited.
