Recycling sequence: a household books a pickup in the app with categories (paper, plastic, e-waste). The platform assigns a nearby collector. The collector weighs each category with a digital scale, the app calculates the price, and the household is paid by UPI. The collector delivers to an aggregation centre, which sends material to authorised recyclers. Recyclers upload processing certificates, which are used for brands' EPR reporting.
