E-Waste Day

Book a drop-off slot and list items for a community e-waste collection day.

Nobody has claimed this yet. Be first.

The idea

Organizers of electronics recycling events let residents book a time slot and list what they are bringing. Volunteers know how many TVs and batteries to expect and cars stop backing up the street. More devices get recycled properly instead of tossed.

Who it is for
Towns, schools and clubs running e-waste drives
How it makes money
Per-event fee paid by the organizing group
Suggested stack

Your first AI prompts

Paste these into Claude, Cursor or Lovable, in order. Check that each one works before moving on.

PROMPT 1 OF 3

Build a web app called E-Waste Day. An organizer creates an event with date, address, 15 minute time slots and a cap per slot. Residents pick a slot and fill in name, phone and an item checklist (laptop, phone, TV, monitor, printer, batteries, cables, other).

PROMPT 2 OF 3

Show the organizer a dashboard with totals per item type, bookings per slot and a check-in screen where volunteers search a name and mark arrived. Block item types the recycler does not accept with a clear message.

Send a Twilio text reminder the day before and a thank you text after with total devices collected. Generate an event summary to share with the recycler. Add a Stripe payment for the organizer event fee.
