### 5/5 — Legit the only useful city app

*2024-04-10, version 2023.4.19*

I was skeptical when I downloaded this but it’s potentially the most consistent thing in my life. If you live in Dallas, download this app.

### 5/5 — Gus

*2024-01-28, version 2023.4.19*

I appreciate the prompt each week to make sure I set out the trash and recycling!  Great app!

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2024-01-03, version 2023.4.19*

I only wish more people knew about this app. I run into people who are clueless and think the City of Dallas is disfunctional because they don’t know where to find info about City services and programs. This is especially true regarding proper recycling. Please publicize this app more broadly. 

Thanks to City staff who maintain and implement it!

### 5/5 — God Tier App

*2023-10-03, version 2023.4.19*

I just moved here to Dallas, TX. I don’t know my way around big city operations, let alone how to operate trash and recycling bins. The size of the bins. The instructions. The schedule notifications. It’s all incredible and useful information. I have been gleefully schooled by the City of Dallas Sanitation Services. The most exhilarating facet of this app and it’s info is the bulk trash pickup. I made a pile, to the specs required and by the noted dates in the app. So many good instructions. But the best part of my new knowledge about bulk trash pickup is when I got to witness the giant dinosaur scooper scoop up a pile of my yard and fence refuse that took me hours to amass. An astonishing pile of garbage gone in one scoop! I may have cried a little. I have watched the video more than once. Amazing. I recommend this app. Excellent information. Good for your house and sanity. Knowledge is power.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2023-08-14, version 2023.4.19*

Keeps me up to date on my garbage service

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-07-21, version 2023.4.19*

Had very low expectations to begin with, yet this app is really well done and helpful. Accurate notifications. App tells accurately notifies me on collection time adjustments and expected delays. 

Well done.

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2023-05-30, version 2023.4.19*

This app is great . Especially for letting know the bulk pickup days ahead of time.

### 5/5 — New Trash Bins

*2023-04-20, version 2022.9.24*

I used this app to request a new trash bin that was damaged and within 2 days I received a brand new bin with the damaged one being removed at the same time. I’m a new proud resident of Dallas.  Thanks to the team (whoever you are) for the great support received when using this very helpful app. Please keep up the great work!🙌🏼

### 5/5 — Very good

*2023-04-17, version 2022.9.24*

Great app. Love notifications and all the information we need is there. One of the few great things the city of Dallas has done recently. Keep updating and improving.

### 5/5 — Continuous improvement !

*2023-03-14, version 2022.9.24*

Through many years of service ups & downs,
I’ve noticed stronger, reliable teams in the last 2 years. (?)
Especially the Trash team in this area.
Thank you 🤗

### 1/5 — Address Validation

*2024-10-09, version 2023.4.19*

It’s concerning when several inquiries are sent to understand why your address does not come up as found/valid. No response to any emails and no call back when making the inquiry via 311. 
Communication is essential

### 1/5 — Basura

*2023-01-27, version 2022.9.24*

Muy mal servicio cobran demasiado y no vienen a levantar la basura vienen cuando quieren y llamas al 311 y dicen es mi responsabilidad estar llamando hasta que vengan a levantar la basura.

Estoy hablando de la basura grande que levantan cada mes

### 3/5 — Recycle

*2022-09-08, version 2022.5.3*

I don’t think you have written a concise and up-to-date list or explanation of what can be recycled. At one time I read to place the lids on the recycled items. That’s confusing because sometimes the lid has no Recycle #, or not one you accept. Do I throw those lids in trash or put them on the recycled item? Perfect example is a cola bottle: I hesitate every time and that’s become very discouraging. 
I think you should have a person who is assigned to making everything clearer and much less confusing.

### 4/5 — Yeah Dallas

*2024-03-07, version 2023.4.19*

Helping us be better citizens of the planet!!!
In pre-school “Capt Earth” was introduced and it was great to have a little one learning to be aware. This app is great for reminding of the week for the bulky trash pick up!
Let’s ALL get better at Recycling!!! 
THANKS to all who join to keep the world as a better place😎

### 4/5 — Simple and perfectly useful

*2023-06-15, version 2023.4.19*

This app is such a welcome surprise. I never expected a city utility to have a quality, consistently performant app like this. The push notifications are extremely helpful without being excessive, and the app experience is very intuitive. No frills, just gives you exactly what you need. Great job Dallas app team!

### 4/5 — Helpful

*2023-03-29, version 2022.9.24*

Helpful app for information. It is a little clunky in terms of UI, but overall good.

### 4/5 — Trash and recycle reminders

*2023-01-29, version 2022.9.24*

Since they changed our pickup day having this app and the reminders they send out have help me to NOT miss my pickup day. 
I like it for other city news they share on it as well.

### 4/5 — Recyclable

*2023-01-21, version 2022.9.24*

Helpful direction to what’s trash and recycling

### 4/5 — Definitely a helpful way to communicate with the city

*2023-01-04, version 2022.9.24*

This is a very helpful app to make working with the city better!

One feature that would be nice: when I am working on a request if I go to another App to collect notes or review what I captured and go back into the App the service request starts over.  It would be great to save the state of an in process service request so a user can cross reference with other phone apps.

### 4/5 — Trash

*2023-01-02, version 2022.9.24*

My people are great but The city has never fixed my 8 ft Cedar fence that they pitched down  the garbage can ... Got tired of calling city they did fix the on where the garbage truck caught fire in Whispering Hills 👍👍👍😡

### 5/5 — A Must Have

*2025-08-13, version 2023.4.19*

Even if you know the schedule, things may change. This app ensures that you do not miss out on an essential public health service.

### 5/5 — Every homeowner that lives in Dallas county, should download it. It’s a must.

*2024-09-25, version 2023.4.19*

App works awesome. Thanks to the app, if you have notifications enabled the app sends you notifications if trash will be pick up the next day, or if the city will postpone it to another day, due to the holidays or  bad weather. My neighbors that don’t use the app, be frustrating why their trash wasn’t pick up. Trust me, this app sends you notifications if trash or recycling will be pick up. Remember, you must have notifications enabled.
