Short answer: almost all of it. WasteBolt doesn’t need to integrate with your weighbridge brand directly — it just needs the ticket data, and there are two routes to get it there depending on what your system can already export.
Two Routes In
Rather than building a bespoke plugin for every weighbridge manufacturer, WasteBolt supports two universal integration paths that work regardless of the make or age of your system.
- Exports a CSV / spreadsheet → use a WasteBolt Import Template. Works with any system, regardless of make.
- Has a live local SQL database → use WasteBolt Gatehouse SQL Server Sync. Syncs tickets automatically, no manual export.
Route 1: CSV Import Templates
If your weighbridge software can export a ticket list to CSV or Excel — which the vast majority can — you set up a WasteBolt Import Template once, mapping its columns to WasteBolt’s fields. From then on, exporting and importing a batch of tickets takes seconds, and the template fills in the compliance details (EWC codes, carrier details) automatically.
We have specific guides for several common systems, but the underlying method is identical for any brand: GlobeWeigh, Loadmaster, Weightron/Avery Weigh-Tronix, Compulink, Rinstrum, Command Alkon, and virtually any bespoke or legacy system that can produce a spreadsheet.
Route 2: WasteBolt Gatehouse SQL Server Sync
Some weighbridge software doesn’t export cleanly, or you’d rather not run a manual export/import step at all. If your system stores tickets in a local SQL database (common for PC-connected weighbridge software), WasteBolt Gatehouse SQL Server Sync connects directly to that database and syncs new tickets automatically in the background.
This is the better option if you weigh high volumes daily and want zero manual steps between the weighbridge and WasteBolt.
Systems We Commonly See
- GlobeWeigh
- Loadmaster
- Weightron / Avery Weigh-Tronix
- Compulink
- Rinstrum
- Command Alkon
- Any bespoke or legacy system with CSV/Excel export
Not seeing your system listed? That’s fine — if it exports CSV or has a local database, it will work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy new weighbridge hardware to use WasteBolt?
No. WasteBolt works alongside your existing weighbridge — you don’t need to replace any hardware or software.
What if my weighbridge software has no CSV export at all?
If it stores tickets in a local SQL database (most PC-based weighbridge software does), WasteBolt Gatehouse SQL Server Sync can connect directly and sync automatically without needing an export.
Can I just type weights in manually instead?
Yes — WasteBolt’s web interface always supports creating WTNs and dockets manually, with no weighbridge integration required at all.
Which option is better for a high-volume site?
WasteBolt Gatehouse SQL Server Sync, since it removes the manual export/import step entirely and keeps records flowing in continuously through the day.
