Binny 4+

Deleted it

Tried all different ways to ask what plastic recycling numbers were supported, could not provide an answer other than 6 was not supported, and gave a general answers about ok to recycle the types of plastic found in most bathrooms. It should be easy to find the numbers supported and I know it’s not 1 to 5.

Developer Response ,

Hey, thanks for the feedback. We've released a new version with up to date information about the recycling of plastic by the numbers. Thanks!

Could easily be replaced by a leaflet

Knowing which bin to put things in isn’t the main thing Aucklanders want to know.
Knowing which day bins will be collected for particular streets, taking public holidays etc into account, would be much more useful - and if it’s too hard to program that into the app, then adding a link to the appropriate Council web page would be a help.
I hope the Council didn’t spend too much money developing this sad little app – more than $100 would have been a waste. Okay, $200 including the picture of the bin.

What about us elderly ?

In all this the Council recyclers have, as usual, forgotten the elderly many living alone and, in my case, have real mobility problems. I can’t drag several bins to the kerb weekly. Nor go to “ pick up points”. Look, Just pick the rubbish up as per my rates require .Enough already.
