How to abolish collective responsibility for waste?

Did you know that just one neighbor who doesn’t sort their waste properly can cause the entire building to be charged a higher fee? This is how collective responsibility in waste management works. Although it was meant to encourage proper behavior, in practice it leads to frustration and a sense of injustice. Residents often ask:

„Why should I pay more if I sort my waste according to the rules?”

Fortunately, more and more resident-friendly cities are implementing innovative solutions that restore fairness and order. One of them is the Individual Waste Segregation System (SISO), developed by T-Master SA. It’s a technology that effectively eliminates collective responsibility and allows each resident to be individually accounted for their waste.

How does it work? Residents receive individual QR codes, which they stick on bags with sorted waste. They then drop them into smart bins that automatically assign the waste to a specific household. This enables precise accounting of waste, and each user has access to statistics via an app or online system.

T-Master SA has been successfully implementing this system for over 7 years in both small municipalities and large cities – from Hrubieszów and Zamość to Rumia. Currently, more than 20,000 residents in Poland are using the technology, and that number is growing rapidly.

The benefits of implementing SISO are real and tangible:

✅ Social fairness – everyone is responsible for their own waste ✅ Cleaner neighborhoods – fewer dumped bags and garbage near collection points ✅ Higher hygiene – the system is contactless ✅ Data and control – residents can track their behavior and influence their fees

Modern waste management requires a new approach. Instead of collective penalties – rewards for responsible residents. Instead of chaos – technology that supports and organizes.

Thanks to T-Master SA’s solutions, municipalities, housing cooperatives, and communities can finally move away from collective responsibility. It’s not only a way to ensure fairness, but also to build trust between residents and administrators.

If your city wants to be truly resident-friendly, it’s worth choosing proven, innovative solutions. The Individual Waste Segregation System is not the future – it’s the present that works. Time for a change that benefits everyone.
