Had no schedule this morning. Uninstall and reinstall on Samsung tablet, entered address and there was the schedule. On Pixel phone re-entered address and schedule appeared. Something is buggy.

This app has good weekly reminders for collections of garbage, recycling materials, food scraps/compostables, yard waste days and other disposal. It is also very helpful to check the app for any materials that we are unsure about, as to where it should go once it has completed its cycle of use. e.g. If you type "plastic cup lid", it will show exactly where this item should go i.e. the blue bin or bag, and that it should be clean and empty. Clarity of instructions is commendable!
