### 5/5 — Useful and easy

*2017-01-10, version 2016.11.13*

Easy and a very useful app, great job

### 5/5 — The perfect reminder

*2016-12-29, version 2016.11.13*

Love it, reminds us of when bins need to go out and what ones..

### 5/5 — 100% Convenience

*2016-12-13, version 2016.11.13*

A great app for weekly reminders of which bins to place each week, along with excellent details of what can and can't be placed in each bin.

### 5/5 — Great for the forgetful mom!

*2016-12-10, version 2016.11.13*

I love this app for making it easy to know when the green bins go out since we alternate weeks in the winter months. Also, sometimes the night before garbage day just sneaks up on me so the alert is lovely.

### 5/5 — Search for address

*2016-10-29, version 2016.10.26*

Cannot search for my address.  It just keeps going to searching the whole APP store.

### 5/5 — Like the reminder!

*2015-03-09, version 1.0.0*

No more excuses for missing garbage day. Keeps you updated in changes in pick up.

### 1/5 — Software is terrible

*2025-05-08, version 2024.8.22*

This software is terrible I cant believe out tax money went to setting this up. Loaded it on my phone and within min it had locked up two or three times.  It did not work when your phone is set to military time to set a notification.  This was very disappointing.  If people within my company created an app with these faults there would be repercussions.

### 1/5 — Garbage App Waste of taxpayer dollars.

*2015-01-07, version 1.0.0*

Garbage App belongs as part of the waste stream: definitely a double entendre. 

Don't bother unless your too dumb to recall your garbage day ...EVERY WEEK!

### 3/5 — Notifications

*2024-11-24, version 2024.8.22*

App will never remove a outstanding notification wether notifications are turned on or off even when there is not any notifications to notify. Otherwise an ok app.

### 4/5 — Useful App

*2016-08-11, version 2015.12.18*

Good to know when you can put your garbage and recycling out 😄

### 4/5 — Great reminder

*2015-01-23, version 1.0.0*

I wasn't going to download this app at first because I thought it would be useless when I already have a reminder in my calendar. But the fact that our amazing town was doing something like this to help its citizens, made me want to support it. I'm glad that I have it now! I started ignoring my calendar reminder, and this app has the notification that pops up and bugs me, which is what I need.

### 5/5 — New to Okotoks

*2024-05-06, version 2023.4.20*

Just moved into Okotoks. Reminders are helpful. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Garbage cans

*2022-04-09, version 2021.12.16*

I find the drivers very hard on the containers my blue on is damaged and my black one is damaged not sure of the next step

### 5/5 — Very Impressed

*2021-03-25, version 2021.3.6*

Im used to apps from municipalities being very poorly designed. This is an incredible exception. Great work. I love how easy and useful it is.

### 5/5 — Great.

*2020-08-19, version 2020.5.30*

Awesome app to help sort waste and remember when to get the garbage out. Will be especially useful when the green bin doesn’t go out every week.

### 5/5 — Amazing.
