# How to Use the Waster App

## The Waster App is your digital hub for managing waste and recycling services. From checking collection schedules to viewing invoices, the app gives you complete visibility and control — all in one place. Here’s a step-by-step guide to using it.

#### ✅ Key Features of the Waster App

- **Collection schedules** – view upcoming collection dates for each bin service.
- **Dashboard overview** – see all your active services in one place.
- **Invoices and billing** – access and download your invoices anytime.
- **Service requests** – request changes to bin sizes, collection frequency, or new services.
- **Support access** – contact customer service directly through the app.

---

#### ✅ How to Access the App

1. Go to **waster.com.au/waste-collection-schedule** or **waster.app/dashboard**.
2. Log in with your customer credentials (provided at signup).
3. Once logged in, you’ll see your personalised dashboard with all current services.

---

#### ✅ Using the Dashboard

- **At a glance** – view your next collection date and service history.
- **Bin services list** – see each service type (general waste, cardboard, commingled, organics, etc.) with scheduled pickups.
- **Alerts and updates** – check for service notifications, public holiday changes, or weather-related delays.

---

#### ✅ Managing Collections

- Check the **collection schedule** page to confirm pickup days for each service.
- If you need to adjust service frequency, you can request a change directly through the app.
- For special pickups (e.g. extra collections), submit a request via the dashboard.

---

#### ✅ Billing and Invoices

- Navigate to the **billing section** to view and download invoices.
- Review your payment history and check for upcoming charges.
- Invoices can be saved for accounting and record-keeping.

---

#### ❌ Common Mistakes to Avoid

- **Not checking holiday updates** – schedules may shift during public holidays.
- **Forgetting login details** – store your credentials securely; request a reset if needed.
- **Not confirming access issues** – if bins are blocked or inaccessible, collections may be missed even if scheduled.
