How GreenUp Works

Three steps. No machines. No trip. Just bags, pickup, and cash.

Step 01

Collect & Bag

Put bottles and cans in a bag. Glass stays separate. E-waste goes in its own bag.

200 containers minimum. About one full bag.
Bags ready for pickup
Step 02

Schedule Pickup

Open the app, enter your container count, and pick a day and 2-hour window. We show up, load it, and pay you.

We send a reminder the night before.
GreenUp app interface
Step 03

Get Paid

We pay 5¢ per container based on your count. Cash or direct deposit. 2,000 cans = $100.

No waiting. No store credit. Cash in hand.

The team behind the truck

Built in Queens.
Running on every block.

GreenUp was started by two guys who saw NYC throwing away millions every week.

This isn’t just an app. It’s trucks on the street, a real facility, and a team that shows up every day.
