Simple Recycling Resumes

It's Back!

Residents in RRRASOC’s nine member communities have the opportunity to get rid of unwanted items such as clothing, shoes, accessories, and other usable household items such as kitchenware, tools, toys, and books with Simple Recycling. We're happy to partner with Simple Recycling to provide residents with a free, safe way to bring new life to unwanted clothing and household goods as an effective way to protect people and the environment. There are a few program improvements to note:

Residents no longer have to wait for their scheduled recycle day. Schedule a pickup that is convenient for you online at RRRASOC.org, SimpleRecycling.com, or by calling 866-835-5068
Residents no longer need to use the dedicated orange Simple Recycling bags for collection - items can be placed in any waterproof bags or boxes marked "Simple Recycling"
Clearly marked waterproof bags or boxes can be placed on the front porch or in front of the garage door by 7:30 a.m. on the scheduled pickup day
