Bin Day
Never miss bin night again

Never miss bin night again. Bin Day puts a grumpy rubbish bin, a cheerful recycling bin, a leafy garden bin or a peckish food caddy on your TRMNL the evening before collection, with a fresh bad pun every week. No account, API key or smart home needed: tell it which bins you have, how often each one is collected and one collection date, and it works out the rest, including bank holiday changes and winter breaks for garden waste.
Tip: put it on your playlist for the evening before bin day (e.g. Thursdays 7-8pm for a Friday collection), or leave it on all the time and it tells you what's next. On collection morning it switches to a last-chance reminder until noon.
