Do you make a conscious effort to recycle your clothes? A staggering 1/3 of clothes across the UK will end up in the rubbish bin and go into landfill. If you think that your old clothes are too worn to wear any longer, don’t throw them out – donate them to a local recycled clothing bin. This way you are helping good causes, doing your bit for the environment and getting more wardrobe space the environmentally friendly way.
Here at Recycled Clothing Banks, it is our aim to make it easy to recycle your clothes, shoes and other household textiles such as bed linen and curtains as easy as possible. We work with local businesses, charities, councils, schools and other public services by providing FREE branded recycled clothing bins for the local community to allow a hassle-free way to recycle your clothes.
Once your recycled clothing bin is full, we will come and empty it, sort through the clothing donations and send these collected items to poorer communities, including our homeless community to keep them warm. You’d be surprised how many items of clothing that are no longer fit to wear can actually be given a new lease of life once hey have been collected from the clothing bin!
Where can you recycle your clothes?
If you need to find your local recycled clothing bins donation point to drop off your unwanted clothes and household textiles, you can find them in supermarkets, retail parks and local car parks or visit your local council’s website to find your nearest recycled clothing bin area.
