Are you looking for a clothes bank near me?
Did you know that the total value of unworn clothing in our UK wardrobes is estimated at a staggering £30 billion? £140 million of this ends up in landfill year on year, which is not great news for our environment.
Local authorities and businesses are doing their best to try and divert textiles waste away from landfill by offering more opportunities to donate to clothes banks. Finding a clothes bank near me, isn’t that difficult; you can check on the internet for your local recycling centre or visit most retail parks or areas with a high footfall and you will come across clothes banks where you can leave your donations.
How can you find a clothes bank near me?
Finding a clothes bank near me offers up many more opportunities than just getting rid of your old clothes – it is also a great way to raise funds for your chosen charity, a local school or community project. How do you do this? Get in contact with us at Recycled Clothing Banks and we will provide you with a FREE branded bin so that people in your community can donate their unwanted textiles, including paired shoes and household fabrics and you get paid per bin load for your chosen cause.
Yes, that’s right. You can earn an income from second-hand clothing by filling up your clothing bank. Once full, we will come and empty your bin, sort and weigh reusable items and ensure these are distributed to people in the UK and overseas who are in desperate need. Unfortunately, there is a misunderstanding that clothes, despite their condition, can be re-used and we are here to help generate a deeper awareness of how you can do your bit to help. So, if you need to find a clothes bank near me, you know what to do.
