### 1/5 — Update Ruins Calendar

*2025-08-26, version 2025.8.13*

The only reason I have this app is to have the calendar showing the collection days and whether it is or is not recycling week. The app removed those functions so it’s completely useless to me now.

### 5/5 — Solid service

*2025-05-27, version 2023.4.21*

I appreciate the reminder about garbage pickup. I like the service I get when I call the office.

### 5/5 — Informative

*2025-01-22, version 2023.4.21*

### 5/5 — I am absolutely loving the trash day reminders

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2024-02-06, version 2023.4.21*

This septuagenarian finds the reminder feature of this app very helpful particularly when “trash day” coincides  with a holiday

### 1/5 — Cant find addresses

*2023-11-15, version 2023.4.21*

App couldn’t even find 3 out of the 4 addresses I searched. All three addresses are well inside Anchorage city limits. I deleted it within 5 minutes of downloading it. Worthless.

### 3/5 — Trash review

*2023-08-26, version 2023.4.21*

The reminders for pickup are great. It would be nice to stay in the app for bill pay instead of getting sent to a browser website to have to login to another site

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2023-04-24, version 2023.4.21*

I love this app because I have a bad memory and this app helps me remember to put my trash can outside each week.

### 5/5 — Reminder

*2023-03-31, version 2022.9.26*

### 5/5 — Helpful

Very helpful app. Especially  for the elderly with their reminders!
