### 4/5 — Easy and Accessible

*2023-11-05*

The site provides a great reminder. A sign of the greening of Regina. Bravo 🌟🌟🌟🌟

### 5/5 — Great reminders

*2023-10-10, version 2023.4.20*

I love the notifications for what bin is due out tomorrow so I can put it out when I get home from work. This will be especially important as it gets colder as it will save me a trip outside late at night or early mornings!

### 5/5 — 100%

*2023-10-07*

Meets my expectations!

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2023-10-03*

I appreciate having this information. Mornings can get busy, but the early reminders make sure I don’t miss a day AND I get the right bin out.  Thank you.

### 5/5 — App

*2023-06-06, version 2023.4.20*

### 5/5 — App

*2023-04-17, version 2022.9.25*

This app is very helpful!!! Thank you for sharing this!!!!

### 5/5 — Garbage and recycle collection

*2023-04-12*

It helps but I would like a text to remind me of the message

### 5/5 — Thumbs up!

*2023-02-20, version 2022.9.25*

It definitely helps me to remember when you put out my bins when you need to biweekly schedule yearly.

### 5/5 — Good job

*2023-01-25*

Refreshing to see an app developed for civic body done well

### 5/5 — App versus email notification

*2022-12-29, version 2022.9.25*

I like the waste disposal app much better than email reminder notifications.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2022-12-23, version 2022.9.25*

Love the App, but I miss the text message reminder. 
With the APP, I have to remember to check the APP. Sometimes my phone unloads the app to save space, so I don’t get the reminder.

### 5/5 — Batool12786

*2022-12-01, version 2022.9.25*

I like the text method more but this one is good too.

### 5/5 — Good service

*2022-11-25, version 2022.9.25*

I find this app very helpful!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Moving backwards

*2022-07-25, version 2022.6.8*

Often miss the alert without the sound or text message. We are basically using the old- old way of noticing the neighbours putting out their bins as an alert for us to put out ours🫤.

### 1/5 — Texts were better

*2022-07-04, version 2022.6.8*

There are no sound alerts with this app. Even trying all the tricks and tips and being in touch with tech support. They advised I use the calendar on my phone to set up my own alerts. So…What’s the point of having the app if it doesn’t work properly?

### 2/5 — The food waste program is a waste.

*2023-12-18*

There is so little that goes into it and it sits and rots causing a gagging stench. You can even smell the truck coming. More and more taxes for do gooder programs. The has to stop!  Where are you dumping the food waste now?

### 2/5 — Garbage

*2023-11-05*

The app is helpful but prefer weekly pick up

### 2/5 — No longer working

*2023-06-18, version 2023.4.20*

It worked good for a year but now it doesn’t show any garbage pickups at all?  Not very helpful.

### 2/5 — Text

*2022-08-05, version 2022.6.8*

I like the reminder so text was good for me.

### 2/5 — Single address only

*2022-06-28, version 2022.6.8*

Recollect support got back to me with their alternative option which was to sign up each different address on a different device.  How many devices am I supposed to carry?  🙄.  My original review is below.

The old text service could be used to send notifications for several addresses to the same phone number. This is a step backwards if you can only do one address.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2022-06-15, version 2022.6.8*

Works as described, but It doesn’t seem like it can be set for the notifications to have sounds on my iPhone. The banners show up but there is no sound so it’s easy to miss the notification.

### 3/5 — App is great, not happy with compost containers

*2024-07-31*

Kudos to the city of Regina for providing the Waste collection app. Well done!

However, I have no accolades for their composting containers. I used the indoor compost container for a while but wasn’t happy to have bugs living in it. I  came up with a simpler and extremely more cost-effective solution in which I place compostable materials into a plastic container that I keep in the fridge to slow the rate of decomposition. When the container gets full, I pour the contents into a compostable bag and keep it either in the fridge or the freezer. The city’s compost container now sits unused on a shelf. 

Additionally, the outdoor compost bin seems excessive for the one or two tiny bags of compostable materials that I throw out each week. Might it have been possible to provide one-quarter the number of outdoor bins for communal use?

In my opinion, the city’s recycling program has unnecessarily (and ironically) introduced an excessive amount of plastic into our community.

### 3/5 — App vs Text

*2022-11-15, version 2022.9.25*

I preferred the text instead of App as it only stays on screen for awhile without a sound. The text stayed & was flagged until read.

### 5/5 — Waste

*2025-09-24*

A great reminder when it is the right day to put out the right container I love the reminders

### 5/5 — Vagina waste reminder

*2024-12-31*

I love this app. I’m constantly forgetting when to put my bins out. This is such a great reminder.

### 5/5 — Why you should use this app

*2024-07-04*

It is a really good app it helps me remember the days to take out my recycling,garbage I 100% recommend

### 5/5 — Really good

*2024-05-06*

I love this app is it tells me when I have garbage, recycling and waste to put out

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-04-22*

Thank god for this app husband always forgets so I am glad I get the alerts to put it out.

### 5/5 — Review

*2024-02-25*

I find is a helpful app by far. The only issue that I have is that we are not to find of how staggered the days are or fall for instance garbage by the time we have pick up for garbage the bin is overflowing which the city of Regina frowns upon. But other than that the system works perfect

### 5/5 — We enjoy the Notifications

*2024-01-06*

Given the additional complexity of trying to remember which bin to put out when, the notifications are very helpful.
Only once that we didn’t receive a notification until the day after pickup.  Thank goodness for the ease getting the info we needed by going to the City of Regina website.

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2024-01-03*

The app is a great reminder of which bin to put out and when to put it out, especially for those of us who are not usually on top of this sort of detail! Great job City of Regina! PS I have been waiting for many years for a city-wide composting program and am so happy it has arrived!

### 5/5 — Better than I hoped for

*2023-11-28*

With the green blue and brown bins. We have had to move to a smaller garbage container in the kitchen because so little goes in it.  I am pretty sure that was the hope.  Well done again City of Regina

### 5/5 — Use the app

*2023-10-16*

Handy way to keep track of which bin the take to the curb. Also like the “which bin” option. 
2 thumbs up.
