At Trashie, we make it easy to recycle your unwanted clothing and textiles with our Take Back Bag. Our simple clothing recycling guide helps you understand which items you can recycle, making it a more sustainable option than traditional clothing donation centers and preventing unnecessary textile waste from ending up in landfills. We accept a wide variety of textiles, including gently used apparel, socks, clean underwear, sheets, pillowcases, towels, shoes, and handbags. You can also recycle blankets, swimwear, outerwear (including ski clothing, snow pants, jackets, and puffers), scarves, hats, mittens, gloves, and jewelry & accessories. Don’t forget about costumes, uniforms, and stuffed animals – they’re also welcome in the Take Back Bag! By choosing Trashie, you’re opting for an eco-friendly alternative to donating or discarding clothing, helping to reduce waste and support the environment.
