UK Recycling & Bin Reminders

$0.99 · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Scan packaging, find the right local bin and never miss collection day. Premium adds household schedules, bin-night alerts and holiday collection changes. Not sure which bin it goes in? Which Bin? helps UK households identify common packaging, separate its different parts and find the most appropriate local recycling route. TAKE A PHOTO Open straight into the camera and photograph the whole package. Image analysis happens on your device. Confirm the suggested item, remove any parts that are not present, then see where each component should go. BROWSE VISUALLY Prefer not to scan? Browse a clear library of familiar packaging, materials and household items. Large icons make it easy to find bottles, jars, cans, cartons, trays, film, batteries, small electricals and more. LOCAL GUIDANCE Choose your postcode, council and collection type to receive guidance tailored to your area. Bin colours and services can vary by property, so uncertain results are clearly marked and linked back to current council guidance. SEPARATE THE PACKAGING Many packages belong in more than one place. Which Bin? can break an item into its pot, lid, sleeve, film, foil or card components and show a separate instruction for each part. PREMIUM COLLECTION PLANNER Upgrade to Which Bin?

Household details, photos, scan history, collection schedules and reminder settings stay on your device. Notifications are scheduled locally by iOS. Recycling services change. Always follow the latest instructions from your council when the app asks you to confirm a result.
