Recycled Clothing Banks helps your community to raise money through recycling
If your local community works tirelessly to put on events to raise money for charity or to finance new local projects and initiatives, then we have another option for you that doesn’t require half as much effort!
Textiles Recycling is a great way to raise money. Clothes, curtains, bed linen, towels, paired shoes, bags and soft toys can all be recycled and the best thing is we will pay you a generous £40p per kilo – that’s a huge £400 per tonne! All you have to do is arrange for us to put one of our recycled clothing bins into your private business space or local authority area and we will do the rest. Once your bin is full of pre-loved and reusable clothing, our team will come and empty your bin, weigh and you’re your donations and pay you – it really is as simple as that.
In the UK, we could fill the whole of Wembley Stadium in less than a year with all of our Nation’s unwanted textiles items. That’s around £140 million worth of clothing that makes its way to landfill sites; it’s our aim to keep as many reusable textiles moving by giving them a second lease of life for someone else to wear and make use of.
Our recycling ideas
It’s our job to think of creative recycling ideas to raise money that are simple and cost-effective. That’s why we work across the region with businesses owners, national and local charities, local authorities, councils, schools and other public services by providing branded recycled clothing bins absolutely free of charge, where your local community can donate their pre-loved clothing and textiles, contribute to reducing landfill and help to raise money for your local community.
Any items that can be donated and reused go a long way to making a positive difference to someone’s life in the UK or overseas. We never waste any textiles donations; anything that can’t be used in the UK, will be sent abroad to help poorer communities.
If you’d like to get involved and start to earn some money for your clothing and textiles donations, our friendly team here at Recycled Clothing Banks are ready to take your call. It’s so easy to arrange your FREE fully branded recycling bin; just provide us with the artwork and we will take care of everything else.
