Recycle Coach helps residents to remember their waste and recycling pick-up schedule and search for recycling and disposal information.
Examples of the calendar in the Recycle Coach mobile phone app.
Background
Recycle Coach moves beyond the traditional waste and recycling calendars by providing a digital platform for councils to deliver waste management communications directly to subscribed residents including details of regular collections, special events, and service interruptions.
Residents in all northern Tasmanian municipalities can use Recycle Coach for free on council websites or by downloading the Recycle Coach app on a mobile phone or tablet.
Circular North purchases a yearly subscription to Recycle Coach for use by partner councils, who are then responsible for ensuring information within the app is regularly updated and relevant to their municipality.
Benefits
The Recycle Coach app's home page includes a calendar displaying resident-specific waste, recycling, and FOGO collections for the next month. It also includes functionality for users to customise reminders for regular kerbside collections.
In addition, council staff can be contacted directly through the app to report issues such as stolen bins, missed pick-ups, or a change of address.
Recycle Coach also contains a searchable index which includes location-based recycling and disposal instructions.
