<![CDATA[
Metro Nashville Public Works (MPW), Nashville, Tennessee, has announced it designed a new smartphone app called the Nashville Waste & Recycling app, which is designed to provide residents with enhanced waste and recycling information.
According to a news release from MPW, the app will help to streamline curbside collection information and enable Nashville residents to quickly find information on how to recycle right and dispose of other materials. The app is available on MPW’s website and can be downloaded on iOS and Android mobile devices. Features of the app include:
- a personalized trash and recycling customer collection calendar for metro curbside customers;
- trash and recycling pickup day reminders; and
- a search tool that allows users to determine what materials can be recycled.
The search tool, called “Waste Wizard,” includes detailed information on how to dispose of more than 200 listed items, including compostable and hazardous materials, bulky waste and recycling materials for residential curbside and drop-off locations.
“We think this is going to serve as a great tool for Nashville residents wanting easy, simple information about Metro’s waste and recycling program,” says Public Works Assistant Director Sharon Smith. “As Nashville continues to grow, we know how important trash and recycling updates and policies are to both established residents and newcomers.”
According to MPW, the new Nashville Waste & Recycling app is sponsored by the “Nobody Trashes Tennessee” campaign with grant funding from the Tennessee Department of Transportation.
