The ReCollective began with just 40 members in the fall of 2022, and with your support, it has grown into a community of 600! Starting a recycling service wasn’t easy, and our first year was all about figuring out the basics of running a service. In year two, we worked on enhancing impact by adding materials like clamshells and #5 plastics, launching organics collection, and introducing new ways to participate, like Community Compost and the Almost Anything Bag.
In 2025, we’re focusing on making it even easier to recycle more. Our calendar will now show ReCo Picks 8 or more months in advance instead of 4. The calendar is your go-to spot for all ReCo Pick details, giving you more time to plan for materials with less frequent pickups.
This February, we’re collecting Scrap Metal and Reusable Totes through the ReCo Pick. Looking ahead, May introduces Plastic Mesh Produce Bags as a new ReCo Pick, with Plant Pots scheduled for June.
