The data behind Recycle Mate is comprehensive and needs to be maintained on an ongoing basis. The Recycle Mate team manages this in a number of ways including providing all program participants with access to the Recycle Mate National Data Hub, which is a live platform for national collaboration and data sharing.
Regular automated scripting and ongoing community feedback are also important aspects of keeping the data current. Anyone can contact Recycle Mate to let our team know about a new opportunity, if a collection point has stopped accepting or any other local changes. App data is community driven and synced weekly to provide up-to-date recycling information anywhere in Australia.
