On average, the lifecycle of a garment is about three years. Every year, each household throws 300 kg of textiles into their bin. If all these textiles were recycled at bring sites, we would need 35,500 clothing banks in the UK to collect them. 

Don't waste this valuable resource, follow these simple tips:

Reduce - Buy clothes that will last for longer so that you are not creating as much waste.

Reuse - Pass on children's clothes to siblings or other relatives. Take your clothes to a charity shop.

Recycle - Use our kerbside sack collection of textiles if it operates in your area. Take your clothes to the textiles bring banks located across the city. To find your nearest use our search facility.
