WeRecycle is a platform to facilitate communication about waste between citizens and and their community. It consists of a  community-built map of outdoor and event trash cans and recycle bins and a mobile app.

WeRecycle supports the US EPA’s Recycling on the Go Initiative and allows you to:

1. Find the nearest trash can or recycle bin, with step-by-step directions to it
2. Log or map trash cans or recycling bins for your community to use (including sending in a photo)
3. Map temporary trash cans and recycle bins for large events (e.g., concerts, meetings, sporting events)
4. Express a need for a trash can or recycle bin at a particular location
5. Hear from citizens who are requesting a public trash can or recycle bin

The community based map is beginning at the University of Georgia where all of the trash cans and recycle bins have been logged.
