Waste Wizard is a quick and easy-to-use waste management tool that is designed as part of the city’s long-term waste management strategy to support the city’s recycling and environmental goals.

The functionality of the app:
- Schedules for trash pickup/recycling;
- A map of special collection points, where you can throw away, for example, Hazardous waste;
- A map of places where you can donate or buy used items;
- Information on how to properly sort over 2,000 waste items;
