Do you struggle when it comes to finding a clothes bank nearby?
Many local authorities and charities are doing their level best to keep clothing banks and recycling areas open but with the latest surge of a new variant of COVID-19, more and more recycled clothing banks and textile recycling areas are having to close. Mountains of unwanted clothing are piling up because people have nowhere to take their pre-loved items.
If you find yourself in an area that sounds just like this, why not call our friendly team and discuss how you can arrange to have a FREE personalised and branded recycled clothing bin installed on your premises, collect reusable textiles, clothes and paired shoes – and get paid for it! Yes, that’s right; we will pay you a whopping £300 per tonne for good quality reusable items. You can use this money to support your local community projects or charity of your choice and also help to keep textiles out of landfill.
When it comes to placing an order for a recycled clothing bin, we make it simple and hassle-free. Just one phone call or email is all it takes to arrange your artwork/logo design with one of our design team and we will organise a delivery date for your installation of your new recycled clothing bin in a location of your choosing.
By creating a ‘finding a clothes bank near me’ solution for your area and having it supplied by our team here at Recycled Clothing Banks creates so many more environmentally friendly opportunities and it also helps you raise funds for any projects you need financial support with. We also offer a referral scheme, where if you refer another person or organisation who successfully installs one of our bins, you can earn an extra £100 per referral. If you would like to help raise awareness to help save our planet, reduce our carbon footprint and landfill usage as well as earn money, organising a clothes bank near me is the perfect answer.
Interesting facts alert: In the UK alone, we spend over £30 billion per annum on UNWORN clothing. Just think of all that wardrobe space you could free up and help families in the UK and overseas who are in desperate need of good quality clothing. Did you also know the average Londoner owns 76 pieces of clothing and around 18 of these are never worn, mainly because they don’t even fit!? What’s even more concerning is that rather than donating these items to a charity shop or recycled clothing bin, 43% said they would send their unwanted items to landfill!
Our Recycled Clothing Banks team has over 10 years’ experience in recycling clothing, shoes and household textiles and we work with many public and private sector organisations such as local authorities, libraries, schools and hospitals as well as private commercial organisations and retailers. Everything we collect from your generous donations is carefully hand sorted and sent to other UK organisations who distribute them to families who are less fortunate, anything that cannot be used in the UK is shipped overseas to help poorer communities, so nothing is wasted.
