About this app

See how to dispose any waste item correctly, wherever you are in the world. Simply scan the barcode, or search the item, to learn the correct disposal options - according to your local disposal rules.

Scrapp takes an education-first approach, to help you be better equipped on disposing your waste correctly. So you can live guilt-free and feel confident that your efforts are having maximum impact.

Join our growing community today and discover how small habits can make a big impact 🌎

** HOW DOES IT WORK? **

1. Scan or search a product on the shelf or at home.
2. Point your phone camera at the barcode - Scrapp instantly tells you how to dispose of it correctly by:

(a) Displaying simple instructions like “Recycle,” “Do Not Recycle,”, “Sort Packaging", "Compost", "Repair" and more.
(b) A step-by-step guide that shows which bin each packaging part should go in, or where you can take your waste through our maps feature.
(c) Motivational messages that make you feel like a recycling hero.

** LOCAL GUIDANCE FOR 400M+ PEOPLE **

Scrapp automatically saves your local disposal rules to give you the most accurate guidance - whether that is your residential waste program or private take-back programs - we have you covered. We currently provide location-based recycling guidance across 100% of the UK, US and Canada. Our internal team reviews frequently, but if there is ever something that awry, you can reach out to our team who will be happy to assist.

Good news - you can still use the app even if we don’t support local guidance in your area yet. You’ll see general advice that is correct for most places.

** TRACK YOUR IMPACT **

View a breakdown of the waste you’ve disposed. Track progress towards your zero-waste goals and get actionable insights about your disposal habits.

** FIGHT PLASTIC POLLUTION TOGETHER **

So far, Scrapp has been successfully used to divert over 60,000+ items from ending up in landfill - and we’re just getting started.

Each time you use Scrapp to dispose of your waste the right way, you also remove ocean-bound plastic. For every item you scan or search, we’re making it possible for you to remove ocean-bound plastic - one bottle at a time.

** 36M+ PRODUCTS SO FAR **

We work directly with brands and retailers to use their data for good. But you can help others to dispose of your waste correctly too. Each time you submit new packaging information, it gets added to our library and shared with the rest of the community.

** DISCOVER SUSTAINABLE BRANDS **

Look out for the green verified tick next to brands in the app - it means the information you’re seeing comes straight from one of our verified brands.

We’re proud to be helping sustainable brands & retailers clear up confusing environmental claims and make more responsible products that have a positive impact on the planet.

Our mission is to educate and empower a global community towards a circular future. So we appreciate your patience as we work tirelessly towards this mission.

App is in active development, practically beta. So far I've had to input the information of every product of mine manually, but at least it retains the info and keeps a nice history to make you feel better about saving the planet. There's no QR code support yet. The item search isn't operational yet. I can't find recycling centers for my local area (yet). The recycling guidance rules are pretty generic, but certain locales may have slightly different rules.

The main feature of giving recycling advice is, in practice, useless. It cannot scan barcodes printed on curved surfaces (like cans). If it scans the code, it never recognises it as something it has advice for. And the search is not much better - it doesn't, for example, know what an LED bulb is. You will get better results from ChatGPT. The reminder of collection day feature worked for a while but has now mysteriously stopped working. Deleted the app and will be talking to my councillor.

Trying to "find local guidance" (whatever that means) & then click on "use current location" it goes to the next page "select guidance" with "404" in the top right hand corner. Seemed a good idea but doesn't work for me
