Mobile WTNs - Updated 16 July 2026
How Can I Manage Waste Transfer Notes on My Phone?
Managing waste transfer notes on a phone lets drivers complete the record at the point of collection or delivery instead of relying on paper forms that have to be retyped later.
Key points
- Drivers can complete WTN details while on site.
- Touchscreen signatures can be saved into the WTN record.
- Photos help support site, load or delivery evidence.
- Offline storage matters when drivers work in poor-signal areas.
Start with the driver workflow
A good mobile WTN process lets the driver open an assigned job, confirm the customer and site, add waste or delivery details, record quantities and capture required signatures.
Capture signatures and photos on site
Phone-based WTNs can include customer signatures, driver signatures and site acceptance signatures. Photos can be attached for load evidence, access issues or aggregate delivery records.
Handle poor signal
Waste work often happens in areas with weak mobile signal. Offline WTN storage lets a driver save the record locally and sync it when the connection returns.
Send the finished paperwork
Once saved, the office can review the WTN, export a PDF, email it to the customer and use it to support invoice creation.
