About Betterbin
Guidelines vary from one community to the next. Packaging is complex and always changing. You need LOCAL answers for the products you buy every day. We’ve got your back.
Finished with a product? Scan the product’s UPC barcode with the Betterbin app to get LOCAL recycling instructions for the SPECIFIC brand of product.
Even better? Each time you scan a product, you earn points redeemable as gift cards to all of your favorite retailers and restaurants.
You can even set up pick up reminders!
Part of a local compost program? Search our database for all of the confusing “compostable” packaging, containers and kitchen wares to find out if they are acceptable in your LOCAL program.
Recycle RIGHT, Compost MORE, buy RESPONSIBLY and Get REWARDED with Betterbin.

Informational & Great Functionality
This app is super user-friendly. After setting up your profile, you can scan away and start racking up points to redeem for prizes. And if the item you scan isn’t in the system, you can submit it for review and they’ll get back to you in 24 hours. (I’ve already done it twice.) The local tips are a nice bonus.

Used to work well, but now useless
I am no longer able to use the camera to scan barcodes with this app. I am presented with an option to go to the iOS Settings app to provide access to the camera to the BetterBin app, but there’s no such option presented when I go there. Stalemate! UPDATE 9 July 2025: After an app update today, I was hopeful that the major bug mentioned above had been fixed, but nope still there 11 month later. COME ON! Get this fixed!
