Reclaim.

Reclaim, powered by Simple Sample, is a monthly recycling service that helps architecture and interior design firms to return samples as part of our efforts to make sampling more sustainable.

Unneeded samples are packed into a crate provided and picked up by Simple Sample. Samples will either be returned to the supplier directly or redistributed via Simple Sample’s free online marketplace so that the next A&D professional can reuse your samples.
