Recycling that comes
to your door.

On-demand, autonomous recycling pickup for Swiss municipalities. One app for residents, one console for the city, and an electric fleet in between — run end-to-end by a single operator.

Three parts, one connected service.

Jöppli isn't a bin or a piece of software — it's the whole loop, run as a service. Residents request, vehicles collect, and the city gets the data behind every kilogram.

Resident app

Request a doorstep pickup in two taps — or in the browser, no install needed.

  • On-demand, at the door
  • Live vehicle tracking
  • See what you save

Autonomous fleet

Right-sized electric vehicles, dispatched on demand and run as a service.

  • Arrives within ~15 minutes
  • Narrow urban footprint
  • No fixed infrastructure

City data console

Every pickup logged by type, weight, time and route — back to the city, clean.

  • Household-level yield
  • Regulator-ready exports
  • One screen for the fleet

Built for the route, not the showroom.

A compact, fully-electric autonomous vehicle sized for dense urban streets — enough range and capacity to run a district all day, then charge overnight.

Two products. The same loop, both ends.

The resident app and the dispatch console are one system seen from each side of every pickup. Both are running in beta today.

The resident requests in two taps.

Request, schedule, hand off, receipt — no new behaviour to learn, and it works in the browser too.

  • Pickup at the door, on demand
  • Track the next vehicle live
  • Works in any browser — nothing to install
Jöppli resident app — request a pickup

Dispatch sees every vehicle, route and kilogram.

The console the operator opens to plan on Monday, reroute on Wednesday, and defend the numbers in a city meeting on Friday — the whole fleet on one screen.

Four steps, every pickup.

From the resident tapping request to the city seeing the kilograms — nothing in the middle is improvised, and nothing is missing.

01

Request

A resident asks for a pickup in the app or browser.

02

Route

The nearest vehicle is dispatched and routed automatically.

03

Handover

Collected at the door within minutes, sorted on board.

04

Data

Type, weight and route flow straight back to the city.

Built for the people who run collection.

No fleet to buy, no software to integrate, no new system for your crews to learn. You lease the service — we run the loop and hand back the data.

Regulator-ready data

Per-pickup type, weight, time, route and household — exported in the formats your reporting already accepts.

No capex, no fleet

Robot-as-a-Service, leased per district. You pay for collection delivered, not vehicles parked.

One operator, one contract

Jöppli holds the licence and runs the service end-to-end — one responsible party for the whole loop.

One city at a time.

Greater Zürich is where we start.

Our first pilot targets Alt-Wiedikon — depth before breadth. We get one neighbourhood right, then expand to the cities most ready to follow.

Questions, answered.

Are you the vehicle maker, the software, or the operator?

The operator. We hold the licence, run the service, and own the contract with the city. In year one we use a hardware partner; from year two we ship our own integration — but the data, the route and the doorstep handover always stay in the same hands.

Where will you operate first?

Greater Zürich. We're targeting Alt-Wiedikon for a first pilot in 2026, then expanding city-by-city: Zürich, Bern, Basel, Lausanne, then the rest.

How is this different from a smart-bin company or route SaaS?

Smart bins solve one fixed point. Route software stops at the dispatcher's screen. Jöppli runs the whole loop — the resident's app, the vehicle, the doorstep handover, the data back to the city — under one operator, so the numbers line up across the chain.

Is the fleet autonomous today?

The autonomy stack and the operator stack are built in parallel. Year one runs with a hardware partner and a safety driver where Swiss OAD law requires it; autonomy work scales in year two on routes that have already proven the model.

Can residents use it without a smartphone?

Yes — the same flow runs in any browser, and scheduled pickups are supported for households that prefer them to on-demand.

How do I get Jöppli in my area?

If you run a municipal collection service, write to us about a pilot. If you're a resident, try the beta and tell us where you'd want pickup — neighbourhood demand is exactly what we look at when planning the next rollout.
