Great news for techies, Raleigh residents, and curbside collection customers. The City of Raleigh recently launched a new + free resource — the Raleigh Reuse app and web tool , available on Apple and Google app stores and on desktop.

The app provides residents a quick way to:

  • View current schedules and receive collection day alerts, including holiday updates.
  • Print the schedule for your exact address.
  • Use the Waste Wizard directory to search 300+ materials to determine if and how items can be recycled, donated, disposed of, composted, or reused.
  • Locate nearby drop-off sites for donation items and hazardous waste.

Try is for yourself by downloading via app store or the website version.
