Description

See how to recycle any household product correctly. Simply scan the barcode to sort packaging into the right bin - according to your local recycling rules.

With Scrapp, the more products you scan, the better recycler you’ll become. And together, the more plastic pollution we can stop from entering our oceans. So you can live guilt-free and feel confident that your efforts will never go to waste.

Join our growing community today and discover how small habits can make a big impact!

** HOW DOES IT WORK? **

Scan a product on the shelf or at home.
Point your phone camera at the barcode - Scrapp instantly tells YOU how to dispose of it correctly by:

- Displaying simple instructions like “Recycle,” “Do Not Recycle,” or “Sort Packaging.”
- A step-by-step guide that shows which bin each packaging part should go in.
- Motivational messages that make you feel like a recycling hero.

** LOCAL GUIDANCE FOR 97M+ PEOPLE **

Scrapp automatically saves your local recycling rules to give you the most accurate guidance. Our partnerships with program managers ensure that any changes can be instantly updated in the app.

** TRACK YOUR IMPACT **

View a breakdown of products you’ve scanned. Track progress towards your low-waste goals and get actionable insights about your recycling efforts.

** FIGHT PLASTIC POLLUTION TOGETHER **

So far, Scrapp has been successfully used to divert over 10,000 items from ending up in landfill - and we’re just getting started.

Each time you use the Scrapp App to recycle right, you also remove ocean-bound plastic. That’s because we’re teaming up with the World’s Leading Plastic Action Platform, rePurpose. With their help, we’re making it possible for you to remove ocean-bound plastic - one scan at a time.

** 100K+ PRODUCTS SO FAR **

We work directly with brands and retailers to use their data for good. But you can help others to recycle right too. Because each time you submit new packaging information, it gets added to our library and shared with the rest of the community.

** DISCOVER SUSTAINABLE BRANDS **

Look out for the green verified tick next to brands in the app - it means the information you’re seeing comes straight from one of our verified brand partners.

We’re proud to be helping sustainable brands & retailers clear up confusing environmental claims and make more responsible products that have a positive impact on the planet.

** WHERE DOES THE APP WORK? **

Scrapp supports local guidance in the following areas:
United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland)
USA (California, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island)

Good news - you can still use the app even if we don’t support local guidance in your area yet. You’ll see general advice that is correct for most places.

Our goal is to empower the entire world with free, local, and accurate recycling guidance. So we appreciate your patience as we work tirelessly towards this mission.

Good idea in principle!

Good idea in principle! Unfortunately I scanned 5 different items & had to add the information myself for all 5. I’ve read previous comments & I’m aware this is a reasonably new app, so adding vast amounts of data takes time. It’s just a shame, as I hoped at least 1 item I scanned may already be added. Also you can’t search for any items without a barcode, so scanning fruit etc is not possible. Be interesting to see how this app develops but for now it’s seems it’s work in progress unfortunately. Hence 3 stars.

App has a lot of bugs

The app often fails to open iOS 17.4
The setup went well no issues
I scanned my first barcode, but the product was not found. I was surprised as the item was a common product. Then, I was asked a lot of technical questions about the packaging. I don’t think your average Joe would have such knowledge. So, I guessed which kind of defeats the purpose of the app. On contacting Scrapp about the scanning feature Scrapp's response was “ This is something we are working on, and we hope to make more products available soon. Any brand and retailer is allowed to upload completely for free and we have solid product coverage mainly in the USA. What makes getting a high product hit rate increasingly difficult is that if an item has a slightly different size it has a separate barcode.”
Good idea but needs to be foolproof or no incentive to use it.

Good idea but weak on accuracy

This has the potential to be a great app but for one fundamental flaw. It relies on users to create the database which in turn, relies on everyone entering data to be 100% accurate. That’s never going to happen and incorrect data will result in other people either recycling what they shouldn’t or not recycling what they should. Added to that, it is not immediately obvious how to correct errors and even when you do discover how to do this the app won’t always let you save the edits. The only options then are to either leave it or report the error to the developers but this is tedious especially as it seems to be the case for about 50% of the items in the database, however, most products I have recycled haven’t actually been listed in the first place.
