which has been connecting citizens, municipalities and environmental services managers for ten years
Recycling has never been so easy!
Junker is the most widespread and accessible waste management app in Italy.
A digital assistant for waste sorting and environmental services, active in over 3,500 municipalities and serving approximately 30 million people, from Bolzano to Palermo.
But it’s not just an app.
It’s a tutor for the entire waste collection chain, designed to help local governments inform, engage, and offer more effective services to their citizens.
A digital bridge between those who manage services and those who use them.
All services in one app
For the Municipality, which has the institutional duty to inform and make urban hygiene services as accessible as possible, Junker provides services for waste sorting, environmental reporting, calendars, collection bookings, notifications, access to bins, gamification, reuse, environmental education, and more.
Everything is available in Junker, in a coherent, modular environment that can be configured to meet the needs of the local area.
From the Junker app, citizens can:
- receive clear, accurate, and always up-to-date information, with zero margins of error;
- access all active services in the Municipality (collections, registrations, reports, noticeboards, and more);
- receive messages, reminders, quizzes, and personalized updates;
view their user data.

The Municipality at the center, together with the citizens
Junker allows municipalities and waste management companies to:
– manage environmental communications on a single channel;
– reduce phone calls, errors, and complaints thanks to comprehensive information;
– increase the quality of waste sorting and customer satisfaction;
– activate additional services such as utility management, pay-as-you-go billing, or on-call services;
– subscribe to a sustainable annual fee, proportionate to the resident population.
The result?
Less operational overhead, greater efficiency, better recycling and more informed citizens.
Accessible to everyone
Since recycling is everyone’s responsibility, it’s essential that everyone can use Junker—without barriers, without complications.
The current version of the app has been designed to meet the most advanced accessibility standards, with particular attention to:
– the blind and visually impaired, thanks to compatibility with voice readers like TalkBack (Android);
– the deaf, thanks to visual content and videos in sign language (LIS);
– the elderly and non-digital natives, thanks to simple interfaces, enlarged text, and improved contrast.
Junker is available in 14 languages, including Ukrainian and Simplified Chinese.
