Have y'all landed on a name for this service?

I've heard:

I'd support a name that conveys a User is reporting a building that should be recycling. "My Building Doesn't Recycle" works but not sure if the Chicago folks mind us using the same name. "Recycle Please" seems like a way to affirm we are asking for buildings to comply with the Universal Recycling Ordinance. "Recycling Bin" is cool because that object is exactly what you are asking for as a user, but it is also vague. "Blue Bin" is even more vague but brings in some automatic color ideas to a brand/mark. Imagine saying that you "blue-binned" a building. Like the phrase, "I ubered home."

Anyways, just think its good to have a name to give to a designer as they conceptualize a logo.

Haven't really fleshed out the naming, but I do want to remove any sort of city affiliation from this project.

One of the core goals is that it would be easy to fork and configure for another city. So that rules out "recycling-atx".

On another thought, the projects should be distinguishable by scope ie front end vs backend. Something along the lines of
