Recycle Old Unwanted Clothing and textiles
We are an organization, committed to working toward a green world by helping each other to recycle more.
Together we can build a better future for all our children.
What about damaged items that cannot be repaired, upcycled, or renewed by your partners? What will happen to those items?
100% material composites like cotton, polyester, silk, and wool will be marketed to textile processors who have the capability to break down the material and turn it into the new recycled fabric.
Other collected materials may be upcycled, repaired, sold back to processors, or stored until we can partner with one of the newer textile processing firms that have the technology to break down blended fibers and create new recycled fabric.
