For collectors
Collect with WasteAway
If you collect waste in Abuja, WasteAway puts nearby jobs on your phone, with the pay shown before you claim. We are signing up our first collectors now, ahead of launch.

What to expect
Nothing about a job is a surprise
Fair pay, on the record
You see the pay for each job before you claim it, and every payout is itemised.
Cash jobs are tracked
Most jobs are paid from the customer’s wallet. Some customers choose cash on collection: the app tracks what you hold and you remit it through the app, with clear rules and no surprises.
Buy-backs pay you too
On buy-back jobs, WasteAway pays your commission on top of the seller’s payout.
Ratings build your standing
Customers rate completed jobs, and good ratings build your standing on the network.
