Resident pain
Store reviews and web demand point to broken reminders, hard-to-read monthly calendars, and a desire to push recurring waste schedules into Google or Apple Calendar.
Owned municipality seed
A focused guide for residents who want municipal waste pickup reminders in a normal calendar instead of hunting through PDFs and old app screens.
Demand evidence
Store reviews and web demand point to broken reminders, hard-to-read monthly calendars, and a desire to push recurring waste schedules into Google or Apple Calendar.
Sort Day uses the Arakawa open-data sorting list as the pilot fixture, then maps item search to category, caution, booking, and fee-label flags.
No fake ICS export yet. We measure municipality, confusing item, calendar need, and contact under source=arakawa-calendar-export first.
Calendar flow
Keep the city guidance and district schedule visible, and never imply Sort Day is the municipality.
Regular burnable/recyclable events should not be mixed with bulky-waste appointment and fee-label workflows.
Collect the item, pickup pattern, notification timing, and calendar target before building the ICS flow.
Measured request
Only contact-bearing requests count as real leads. Hazardous disposal and legal interpretation stay out of scope; official city guidance wins.
