Whether it be because of COVID-19 or because of the changing season, chances are you are Spring cleaning. One of the amazing things about Spring cleaning is being able to declutter your space and get rid of toxicity, whether that be an old piece of clothing that brings up bad memories or getting rid of that rag towel in your kitchen that stinks like rotten food waste.
It’s hard enough figuring out the recycling and composting with papers, plastics, and food waste. When we throw textiles (aka any type of fabric) into the mix, recycling inevitably gets even more confusing. That is why I put together this handy list of all the brands/retailers that will recycle FOR you and reward you with a discount code for recycling with them. Bring in old clothes or bring in old towels… these brands will do all of the hard work for you, so you can spend more time living in your now decluttered space!
Brands that will recyclle any textile, whether it be their own clothes or a dirty towel
- H&M
- And Other Stories
- North Face
- Levi’s
- Reformation
- Zara (only select stores)
Brands that will recycle their own products
Non-Retailer or Brand Recycling Programs
- ThredUp
- Terracycle
- refashionNYC (NYC Housing Works and NYC Department of Sanitation partnership)
If you would like more information on how each brand takes the recycling, visit their website for more information. However, most of the time, you can simply pop into any store and drop off your recycling with them. (Please note that if you are under quarantine for COVID-19, do not do this until after COVID-19 has blown over and quarantine has ended.)
I would love to hear more ways of how you are recycling your clothes! Is there a way you love to recycle your clothes that I am missing? Comment down below!
