Geneva residents can reduce their household waste and become recycling experts thanks to the City’s new partnership with Recycle Coach.

Residents can access the Recycle Coach portal on the City’s website or download the company’s mobile app. The free platform makes it easy for people to get disposal information for thousands of household items by using the “What Goes Where” search tool. Users will find requirements tailored to the City’s refuse program and local drop-off sites.

With Recycle Coach, residents can find a collection schedule detailing when their garbage, recycling and yard waste pickups will occur each week, including holidays. The calendar also highlights the City’s monthly brush and fall leaf collection programs along with Kane County recycling events. Residents can set reminders for their regular pickups and local events on their mobile devices.

Recycle Coach’s Discovery Zone offers recycling fundamentals, misunderstood materials, children’s activities, sustainability articles, and other tips to keep the community informed.
