Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
RecycleCRD holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RecycleCRD has 18 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of RecycleCRD's written reviews are positive against 94% of MNC Curbside Collection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RecycleCRD ships an update every 3 months, MNC Curbside Collection every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
