In this paper, we present a decision-support tool that implements high level algorithms determining waste collection tours for municipal solid waste and the location of collection points. The application offers a high granularity in terms of data input, offering the possibility to run a large number of simulations for operational and strategic decision making. The decision-tool has already been used on the ground-field in the city of Köniz in Switzerland to reorganize their collection strategy. We present this reorganization through a case study is presented on the city of Fribourg in Switzerland to illustrate the decision possibilities.
