Rollout! Houston

I installed this app shortly after moving to Kingwood in June 2024 and the recycling which is supposed to be picked up every other Tuesday never happened. It was picked up on Wednesdays. This often resulted in the recycling bins being left out for two days. After contacting the developer a couple of weeks ago requesting information he took it upon himself to contact the city of Houston and today the recycling truck came around a couple of hours after trash pickup. Fortunately I was home and heard it down the street and was able to get my bin to the street. Unfortunately, many neighbors were not home so I expect their recycling bins will be out tomorrow, for no telling how long! Let’s hope this glitch has been resolved and everyone will be on the same schedule soon!

You wouldn’t think an app like this would be necessary, right? Wrong! Even the best of us need a reminder (some need a CONSTANT reminder) what week it is. Is this recycling pick up week? Is heavy trash pick up this week or next? Is it junk waste or tree limbs? This simple app puts the answers right at your fingertips. No more trying to maneuver the city website. I use it all the time and my neighbors should too. Being on the board of the HOA not a week goes by that I don’t get a call inquiring about trash pick up. It’s great for new residents who aren’t familiar with the schedule ALSO I have a friend who is a real estate agent. He is always asking me to use my Rollout app and tell him when pick up is in at a certain address so he can tell contractors or cleaning people at his listings when they can put the trash at the curb. A great tool for anyone cleaning out a house in a neighborhood where they don’t know the schedule. I’ve also been told by a “picker” who goes around the day before heavy trash day looking for treasurers that people throw away, that he uses it to chart his course for the week. There are a lot of uses for lots of different people. It’s a great app!! Very helpful and easy to use.

Thank you for the app! Quick method to check schedules. However, the schedules are showing backwards. A and B seem to be reversed. Thanks again.
