Textiles

Textiles

  • Most home recycling bins, provided by your local council, accept old clothes and textiles. Recycling banks may also accept old clothes.
  • Donate old clothes to charity shops or take them to a jumble sale.
  • Only donate clothes that are still usable.
  • Old clothes can be used to make other textile items, such as cushion covers or cleaning cloths.
  • When donating shoes, make sure they are tied together so they don’t separate.
