Why timing matters for Recycling centre

Recycling centres keep some of the strictest hours around — midday closures, whole days off, early gates — so their timing is high-sensitivity. Mini Detour checks the hours against your arrival and warns you before the drive is wasted.

Add a recycling centre to your plan with a realistic unloading window; Mini Detour ranks options by detour and checks the timing against your arrival, keeping the rest of the trip accurate.

Questions

These places have awkward hours — can it cope?
That's exactly the case it's built for. Where hours are published it checks them against your arrival and flags a centre that would be shut.
What if the hours aren't listed?
The centre still appears, marked hours-unknown, so you can decide rather than have it quietly dropped.
