How it works

Hard-To-Recycle Pickup, Right From Your Home

The ReCollective provides reusable bags for materials that do not belong in regular curbside recycling. Fill them throughout the month, then set them out for your scheduled monthly collection.

Materials collected through ReCo

Members use labeled bags to keep different materials organized between pickups. Select a category to see what belongs in each bag.

How pickup works

From your collection kit to pickup day

Your reusable bags keep materials separated at home and make collection day straightforward.
