Site updates

This page summarizes meaningful improvements to city coverage, navigation and disposal guidance. Small typo and formatting changes are not listed.

October 7, 2026 — city coverage and reliability

• Updated high-priority city guides with current municipal, county, authority and contracted-hauler information.
• Expanded the public directory to 247 city guides while keeping a small number of working guides out of search until their resident routes are stable enough to publish.
• Improved city search so exact city-and-state queries return the correct location first.
• Improved large-item contact blocks so residents can more quickly find the responsible service, phone number, timing and official source.

October 7, 2026 — accessibility and technical cleanup

• Improved keyboard focus, autocomplete behavior, reduced-motion support, small-screen wrapping and city-directory filtering.
• Strengthened security headers and kept city pages, canonicals, sitemap entries and search data synchronized.
• Added a site-wide social sharing image and standardized social metadata.

October 6, 2026 — expanded city coverage

• Added and strengthened city guides across major U.S. metro areas.
• Improved source handling for cities where service depends on address, provider, zone or property type.
• Added state navigation for the states with the largest current city coverage.

How source-check dates work

The source-check date on a city guide records when the underlying local sources were reviewed. A later technical update can reflect navigation, accessibility or layout changes without implying that the local agency changed its rules that day.
