BinWhistle: Bin Day Reminder

Never wonder which bin goes out next.

BinWhistle is a private, offline bin-day planner for households with one or more collection schedules. Create your own properties and bin types, preview upcoming dates, set local reminders, record changes and check each collection off. No council account, address, location or internet connection is required.

PLAN THE SCHEDULE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE
• Add named properties without entering an address
• Give each bin a clear name, icon and colour
• Set weekly, fortnightly, every-N-weeks, alternating, nth-weekday, monthly or one-off collections
• Preview the next three dates before saving

HANDLE REAL-WORLD CHANGES
• Skip one collection, move it to another day or add an extra pickup
• Keep exceptions separate from the repeating schedule
• See upcoming work on a dashboard and calendar

REMIND YOURSELF LOCALLY
• Set optional day-before and collection-morning alerts
• Inspect reminder status without creating an account
• Keep schedule and completion data on your device

CHECK OFF THE WHOLE ROUTINE
• Mark bins put out, collected and brought back
• Review local collection history by property
• Share a readable schedule or create a JSON backup
• Validate backup data before restoring it

Every BinWhistle feature is free. There are no subscriptions, in-app purchases, trials, paywalls or paid-only limits. Advertising is the only monetisation. Labelled banners can appear only on non-critical read-only screens. App-open ads become eligible after three completed sessions, are capped to once in any rolling 24 hours and stay outside editing and reminder flows. An optional rewarded ad changes only a temporary visual accent. No interstitial is used.

BinWhistle is a personal reminder and planning tool. It is not affiliated with any council, waste contractor or government agency. Collection information can change, so confirm important dates with your local provider.
