Ratings and reviews

Excellent application. Easy to use and informative. One suggestion: Connect it to Alexa (Amazon) for people with certain disabilities who have difficulties moving around or have no mobile.

This app is very useful and helps me reliably remember what type of refuse is being taken on what day and prepare to put it out in time. So I'd say it achieves its purpose. I haven't found it buggy or anything so I'm happy. Pretty user friendly and reliable.

I use this all the time. The 'tips' KEEP me up to date with changes re:what goes where and some things that are not intuitive. Did you know that pizza boxes go in the Green bin? Me neither, until it came up in a tip. Cons: It's not usable offline. So, you'll need data or WiFi. You can't copy and paste from the notifications or share them to another app. I got a notification with address of the hazardous waste disposal site and the time&date to drop off & it was awkward to put in Calendar.
