Storm Debris Manager

Product Information

A major disaster has just occurred in your county, and among countless serious issues that the Emergency Operation Centers have to contend with, is the pickup and removal of the debris caused by the event. Storm Debris Manager gives you the tools to efficiently and reliably track and manage the clean-up efforts.

Our debris management system is the most adaptable, our technology the most efficient - which makes our results the most reliable.

How does it work?
SDM is built on 3 principles, Adaptability, Efficiency and Reliability. Our unique web-based system is designed to take advantage of traditional ticket tracking methods, such as the 5 part NCR form. These forms have been used in the debris management industry for years and are the de-facto standard for recording haul amounts. SDM integrates paper tickets with advanced imaging and character recognition techniques to allow data to be absorbed and validated within hours not days. The end result is a system that gives virtually real-time information to all project personnel.
