I have use conditional cards based on the state of this sensor to display images in my reminder card.
As I said I always have two pickups on the same day, garbage and either green waste or recycling.

I have followed
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/template-guide-days-away-from-calendar-event/211209/47
and created all my sensors. Is there any recommended card to use for the garbage collection? I have not been able to use the custom garbage collection card (yet). Not displaying correctly.
Thanks.
I am looking too.
Have you taken a look at this custom_component
?
I and a lot of others highly recommend it. It’s great and the support thread here in this forum is very well maintained.
All i need was only this card, its perfect size for my Dwain Dashboard.
I finally have everything working again as before thanks to help from many. I am posting my yaml files to help others. I believe the Waste_collection_schedule documentation needs some help. No where near as hard. Template sensors were not needed for me.
I have static sensors

Hope this helps others.
Tried but with the google calendar method this doesn’t work.
I am not using the google calendar method.
I don’t understand why it won’t create this garbage card like you had when using google calendar. It should be easy.
I believe the calendar doesn’t make the necessary attributes that the card needs.
Here is mine from the waste collection schedule integration: As I said you do not get all the attributes from the calendar.
Yeah, but only attributes what needs to be displayed is “days left”.
That is available and is shown in states. The only problem is when I use this in garbage card then it wont show “days left” number.
I tried the calendar and could not get it to work. I opened a GitHub issue with the coder of the card.
Please follow here. Not sure what else I can tell you.
I’m a bit late to the party, but this might be useful info.
On YouTube, Bruxy explains how to make a sensor template for state (to change icon color and/or text) and days remaining. The rest is using the capabilities of calendar and a card to display the collection info. Shifting pickup dates due to holidays can easily be done via the calendar GUI.

Hi, i have the same problem for the configuration with 4 static sources, and only one is working.
the waste_collection.yaml is like:
sources:
- name: static
calendar_title: Altpapier
args:
type: Altpapier
frequency: WEEKLY
interval: 4
start: "2023-01-11"
customize:
- type: Altpapier
icon: mdi:trash-can
- name: static
calendar_title: Biomuell
args:
type: Biomuell
frequency: WEEKLY
interval: 1
start: "2023-01-05"
customize:
- type: Biomuell
icon: mdi:flower-outline
- name: static
calendar_title: GelberSack
args:
type: GelberSack
frequency: WEEKLY
interval: 6
start: "2023-02-17"
weekdays: FR
customize:
- type: GelberSack
icon: mdi:recycle
- name: static
calendar_title: Restmuell
args:
type: Restmuell
frequency: WEEKLY
interval: 2
start: "2023-01-05"
customize:
- type: Restmuell
icon: mdi:trash-can
and the sensor’s are like: ( i have the sensors in a seperate directory, so it looks a bit diffrent to you)
platform: waste_collection_schedule
name: next_Muell
source_index: [0, 1, 2, 3]
details_format: "upcoming"
value_template: "{% if value.daysTo == 0 %}Heute{% elif value.daysTo == 1 %}Morgen{% else %}in {{value.daysTo}} Tagen{% endif %}"
platform: waste_collection_schedule
name: Altpapier
source_index: 0
details_format: "upcoming"
value_template: "{% if value.daysTo == 0 %}Heute{% elif value.daysTo == 1 %}Morgen{% else %}in {{value.daysTo}} Tagen{% endif %}"
types:
- Altpapier
platform: waste_collection_schedule
name: Biomuell
source_index: 1
details_format: "upcoming"
value_template: "{% if value.daysTo == 0 %}Heute{% elif value.daysTo == 1 %}Morgen{% else %}in {{value.daysTo}} Tagen{% endif %}"
types:

details_format: "upcoming"
value_template: "{% if value.daysTo == 0 %}Heute{% elif value.daysTo == 1 %}Morgen{% else %}in {{value.daysTo}} Tagen{% endif %}"

i don’t know where my issue is ?
Did you try my setup above? I have not issues since I changed to it. If that works, then try modifying it. It took me awhile to get it to work correctly.
i have now recreated your config and it works. i am now testing step by step what the problem could be. unfortunately you don’t use a date as the start date and what annoys me is that i have to restart the server every time to get a result. it just takes a really long time…
You might be better off, if you’d ask in the corresponding thread, where others (eg. the developer) check for questions.
Not sure your question. Mine works correctly on each restart (I have a lot as I do beta testing).
My current card after yesterday’s OS update.
