Frequently asked questions
Which is cheapest?
Usually "Pick up & Recycle" is most economical because there are no landfill fees and distance is usually shorter. "Dispose" is most expensive due to fees.
Can helpers do all three types?
Yes, all helpers can accept any job type. However, some prefer certain types depending on their vehicle or experience.
Can I ask the helper to change the type during the job?
No. If you need to change the type, you must cancel and create a new job. Changing the type affects price, destination and responsibilities.
What if the helper doesn't take it to the right place?
If a "Recycle" job ends up at the landfill, or vice versa, you can report it and dispute the payment. ReciGo verifies proof photos with GPS.
