Recycling made simple

Why not stop putting your unwanted clothing in the bin and find your nearest Salvation Army clothing collection bank or shop instead?

Your unwanted clothing could have a new lease of life. Just make sure it's clean!

What to Recycle

Salvation Army Trading Company Ltd can recycle all textiles, clothing, linen and rags; the only preference we have is that they are clean.

Items might include bed linen, curtains, clothes, pairs of shoes (tied together) and underwear. 

We send items that are not suitable for reuse for shredding to make mattress filling, insulation and soundproofing for cars.
