User Reviews

Users praise the app for being easy to use and for delivering schedule info, reminders, and centralized disposal guidance. However, recurring issues include inaccurate schedules, frequent delays/missed pickups (notably recycling and yard waste), and unreliable reporting to 311. These cons reflect delays and information gaps even as the app remains a valuable tool for staying informed during storms and debris events.
Pros
  • Easy to use and navigate (user-friendly)
  • Provides clear schedule, pickup days, and item-specific disposal information with reminders/notifications
  • Keeps residents informed about delays and offers proactive alerts (reduces anxiety)
  • Centralized hub for curbside pickup, drop-off locations, and disposal centers
  • Helpful during storms/debris events with service status updates
Cons
  • Information and pickup schedules are sometimes inaccurate or not up-to-date (days can be wrong)
  • Missed or delayed pickups (especially recycling) are common and may not be made up promptly
  • Reporting issues (app or 311) sometimes aren’t logged or responded to effectively
  • Yard waste/green bag pickups are particularly unreliable or delayed (weeks between pickups)

This is what our exorbitant property taxes and local sales tax buys us ? Côme on, Houston, you can and should do better! Trash pick-up is a necessity not a luxury. Get it together.

I have always found this app to be very helpful, but for about a month it’s been stuck on a search bar when I open it and useless. I tried to report the problem using 311 but that’s pretty much impossible.

I appreciate all the hard work during the and after the storms. I hope leaders are listening to your feedback. The illegal dumping in acres homes is frustrating. Paid jobs get dumped on Easter and little your right after you filled an entire truck. Is there some type of portable cam that can be used. They know how to blur their liscence plates in the process.
