Waste Pin usage guide

For people reporting discarded items and waste collection teams coordinating their work.

Reporting responsibly

Provide accurate coordinates. Item photos and descriptions are planned. Do not share personal information. A report does not reserve or guarantee a collection.

Using collection routes

Select the points relevant to your work. Mapping and route calculations depend on external map services and connectivity. Check access and local rules yourself.

Accounts and teams

The public map and route planning do not require an account. Individuals can publish public coordinates with an account. Companies choose public sharing or team-only access. Only public coordinates, their publication time and display attribution are visible to everyone; team-only points require company membership. Invitations, account details and team administration stay private. A company administrator does not automatically administer the public blog.

Beta limits

Waste Pin is in beta. Collection availability depends on the participating team. Route estimates are guidance, not a guarantee of the shortest journey, live traffic or collection. Payments, a bidding marketplace and offline navigation are not offered.

Using the beta responsibly

Publish accurate points and share only collection information. Teams choose public or team-only sharing. Check the item, access and permission before collection. A report does not reserve an item or guarantee availability, ownership, a collection or a route estimate. Contact us with questions about the beta.
