Rick

I installed this app shortly after moving to Kingwood in June 2024 and the recycling which is supposed to be picked up every other Tuesday never happened. It was picked up on Wednesdays. This often resulted in the recycling bins being left out for two days. After contacting the developer a couple of weeks ago requesting information he took it upon himself to contact the city of Houston and today the recycling truck came around a couple of hours after trash pickup. Fortunately I was home and heard it down the street and was able to get my bin to the street. Unfortunately, many neighbors were not home so I expect their recycling bins will be out tomorrow, for no telling how long! Let’s hope this glitch has been resolved and everyone will be on the same schedule soon!

So happy this was recommended to me

We had been going online to the HTX trash pickup website and it was just a hassle. Then we learned about the HTX trash app but it was often wrong or not updated. FINALLY someone on Nextdoor mentioned this app in a comment section and it’s cut a lot of wasted time worrying about trash/recycling/ bulk days and wasted time moving the different cans up and down the back area and driveway. Not to mention having to move vehicles or ask neighbors to move vehicles, if parked too close or right where the cans go. Waaaayy too long of a review just to say I’m happy this app exists and the schedules are updated well. Thanks developer!

Simple yet effective!

It does what it’s supposed to - reminds me of the proper local trash schedule & details! Works like a charm - Perfect!

Doesn’t reflect holiday schedule

Why doesn’t this app reflect the holiday schedule? Today is Memorial Day 2021 but yet the app says my trash will be picked up. But it won’t. Until tomorrow. Such a simple app should know Houston’s holiday schedule.

Holidays

Why does this app not account for holidays? That is extremely annoying.
