Because in waste collection, a claim doesn’t need to be true to get paid.

It just needs to be impossible to disprove.

A scratched car.

A fallen mailbox.

A broken fence.

Your truck was there.

And without evidence, that’s all it takes.

You pay.

Here’s where that money is going, and how to stop it.

The call comes in.

A resident says your truck hit their car.

You call the driver.

He says he never touched it.

You believe him.

Probably.

But you weren’t there.

Neither was anyone else from your team.

So now you have to decide whether to pay or fight, with nothing but two versions of the same story.

And when you have to guess, the safest guess usually comes with a check.

This is where EYERIDE changes the conversation.

Instead of asking what happened, you watch it.

Multi-camera video synchronized with GPS location, speed, and exact time shows you that address, at that minute, from every angle.

No guessing.

No “probably.”

Just facts.

Maybe you already invested in cameras.

So you go looking for the video.

And that’s when you discover the problem.

The camera only records forward. The damage was on the side.

The memory card was already overwritten.

Or the truck is out on the route, and someone has to bring it back to download the footage.

Days go by.

The claim keeps moving.

And you’re still searching.

A camera you can’t use when you need it isn’t protection.

It’s just hardware.

EYERIDE.IO was built for this exact moment.

Front, side, rear, and 360° coverage, so the angle you need actually exists.

Remote access from the platform, so the truck never leaves the route.

Search by vehicle, address, date, or time, and the clip is in front of you in minutes.

Your answer arrives before the claim escalates, not after.

The small claims seem too minor to fight.

A mailbox. A mirror. A fence that was already leaning.

So you pay and move on.

But add up the year, and it’s a cost nobody approved and nobody tracks.

Then there are the claims you can’t pay and forget.

A cyclist. A pedestrian. A car at an intersection.

Now the questions are serious:

How fast was the truck moving?

Was the driver distracted?

Who entered whose path first?

If you can’t answer, a lawyer will.

And small or serious, every claim ends up in the same place:

Your insurance renewal.

EYERIDE puts you back in control of what you pay.

Every claim can be reviewed in minutes with video synchronized with GPS, speed, and driver events.

Real claims get paid fast.

False claims get closed with evidence.

Serious incidents come with a clear timeline of what happened outside the truck and inside the cab.

And you see which routes, addresses, and vehicles keep generating claims, so you can fix the pattern instead of paying for it.

Fewer claims paid. Stronger defense when it matters. A record you can take to your insurer with confidence.

EYERIDE.IO gives waste and recycling fleets the evidence to stop paying for damage they didn’t cause.

Here’s what the next claim looks like when EYERIDE is on your trucks.

1. The call comes in.

A resident says your truck hit their car on Maple Street this morning.

1. You find the moment in minutes.

Search by address, vehicle, or time.

No calling the driver.

No pulling the truck off the route.

No hoping the footage still exists.

1. You see exactly what happened.

Front, side, rear, and 360° video, synchronized with GPS location, speed, and the exact time the truck passed that address.

1. You decide with facts.

If your truck caused the damage, you resolve it fast and the customer is satisfied.

If it didn’t, you close the claim with evidence.

What used to take days now takes minutes.

• You stop paying claims that never happened. Every claim gets checked before anyone writes a check.
• You resolve real claims faster. Less back and forth, less admin time, fewer upset customers.
• You’re protected when it gets serious. A clear timeline of speed, location, and driver events, plus AI alerts for collisions, pedestrians, fatigue, and distraction.
• You see where claims keep coming from. Patterns by route, address, and vehicle, so you can fix the cause instead of paying the symptom.
• You walk into your insurance renewal with a record you can defend.
• Your drivers are protected too. When they did everything right, the video proves it.

Every week without evidence is another week of paying on trust.

Another claim you can’t disprove.

Another check written “just in case.”

The claims won’t stop.

The only thing you can change is whether you can prove what happened.

So go back to the question at the top of this page.

How many damage claims did your fleet pay last year?

If you don’t know how many of them were real, you’re paying for damage your trucks never caused.

EYERIDE makes sure you never have to guess again.
