Textiles Recycling Tips
Anything you wear, or sleep in, can be recycled. This includes all clothes, hats, belts, and shoes
(in pairs) along with blankets, curtains, towels and bed linen. Remember that its best to wash
clothes before taking them to be recycled. Check the instructions on your clothing recycle bag or
on your local clothing bin, or call your local charity to find out which clothing items can and cannot
be recycled in your area.
Remember that clothing bins are an important part of the textile recycling
process. Do not use them as rubbish bins. Only put in items that can
be recycled. Badly damaged clothing and household goods cannot be used
by the charity and must be disposed of in landfill.
This is costly and time consuming for the charity.
