I really like the service overall. But they can be very picky about what they grab. They will stick to their “bag rules” very stringently too. Even if that bag is also mostly air.They’ve simplified their plans which is nice in one way, but also annoying when you’ve got one or two random extra items which they will leave behind because it doesn’t fit for the amount paid. It’s a bit confusing, even with their AI implementation. You can’t add on or expand the plan anymore. So you better hope it fits or be prepared to walk back and find some items left out for you to take back.In the end, I’ve found it’s much easier (and often cheaper) to just pay someone on Airtasker to come by and grab it for you. I don’t get points or the nice feeling it’s been recycled, but I won’t get in trouble for the items that have been left behind and it actually gets cleared in one go.But when it works, it’s great. It’s seamless and efficient. When it doesn’t, it’s quite aggravating and sometimes costly.
Great service, app not so great

Can’t even reschedule a pick up using the app, as the calendar doesn’t allow a new date selection I edit mode, and no response yet to my request for help. For such a fundamental feature to not work in a date-based service app, is a bad sign. Additionally, there is no information as to how many collections each year are available, which adds further frustration. I will say that my one and only pick up went off without a hitch, so thankfully the service side of the business appears to run smoothly. Disappointingly, it appears I’m only entitled to one free collection every 6 months (guessing based on the next, unmovable, app-assigned collection date), so I can’t see the point in continuing to use this service for now.
App and service are brilliant

While I keep trying to reduce my plastic consumption and waste by not buying anything in plastic, it’s virtually impossible to achieve. I’m so happy to have this service and business that takes things that would go to landfill and know it’s getting recycled. The search function gives information about how to deal with difficult to recycle items in your area. I can’t imagine how difficult it was to collate all this information from every council in australia. Very grateful
Great Service

I don’t understand what people are talking about when they say you can’t change the pickup date in the app, I do it all the time! And complaining because they don’t pick up stuff because they can’t recycle is ludicrous. Reality is those who produce the goods in plastic should actually pay for it to be re-cycled, they would certainly lift their game if they were forced to. This is a great service, don’t listen to the whiners, if you can afford it do it!
