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)

Recent reviews

This app used to be decent. No more. The calendar only displays in a list format instead of like an actual calendar grid like it used to. There is very limited information available about the trash collection schedule. Where is the search function? Do better.

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.
