We present a new frame semantics for positive relevant and substructural propositional logics. This frame semantics is both a generalisation of Routley–Meyer ternary frames and a simplification of them. The key innovation of this semantics is the use of a single accessibility relation to relate collections of points to points. Different logics are modeled by varying the kinds of collections used: they can be sets, multisets, lists or trees. We show that collection frames on trees are sound and complete for the basic positive distributive substructural logic 
$\mathsf {B}^+$, that collection frames on multisets are sound and complete for 
$\mathsf {RW}^+$ (the relevant logic 
$\mathsf {R}^+$, without contraction, or equivalently, positive multiplicative and additive linear logic with distribution for the additive connectives), and that collection frames on sets are sound for the positive relevant logic 
$\mathsf {R}^+$. The completeness of set frames for 
$\mathsf {R}^+$ is, currently, an open question.
