The ReCollective: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

We collect hard-to-recycle items (the stuff that can’t go in your blue bin) that would otherwise be landfill-bound right from your doorstep and ensure they are reused or recycled in transparent and responsible ways. Our streamlined process eliminates clutter from your home and does the leg work for you so that common household materials make it to a new life, rather than a landfill.

About FundedIQ's The ReCollective Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for The ReCollective is left off this page rather than filled in.
