The neighbourhood is known for its vigilance against garbage dumping. Residents of the locality have formed a volunteer group called "Swachh RR Nagar" to clear garbage from public places in the area. In 2019, BBMP installed CCTV cameras in the locality to monitor and curb garbage dumping.
Residents of RR Nagar also ensure that the ban on plastic is enforced in the neighbourhood by donating paper covers and cloth bags to vendors. The locality reportedly became "plastic-free" in mid 2019.
