Ridwell

Ridwell is a Seattle-based subscription service that picks up hard-to-recycle household items — such as batteries, light bulbs, plastic film, Styrofoam, and clothing — that are not accepted by standard curbside programs. Members receive bags to collect these items, which Ridwell then routes to responsible recycling and reuse partners. The service targets environmentally conscious consumers and has expanded to multiple U.S. cities including Portland, Denver, Austin, Minneapolis, and the Bay Area.
