Recycle Fundraiser

Recycle for Funds will organise with yourselves a date for collection that is suitable for both parties. We ask that you advertise said day for collection around your establishment. Please advise everyone in your setting to be aware of what you want them to do.

Collection day

We would ask that on collection day, all fit-for-purpose clothing and footwear be put into black refuse sacks. Please bag footwear separately from textiles.

Recycling process

Once clothing and footwear are collected, they are transported to a recycling plant, where they are sorted by experienced workers into specific categories. Once sorted, good clothing and footwear are graded, weighed, and baled, put into a shipping container, and exported overseas. This used clothing and footwear helps create overseas markets with much-needed resources for underdeveloped countries.

What we collect

• Adults and children's fit-for-purpose clothing
• Adults and children's shoes trainers, and boots ( no slippers or wellies )
• Handbags and belts
• Sheets , curtains and towels
• All items must be clean and dry, with wearable clothing and footwear paired.

We are committed to helping schools, community groups, and businesses raise funds in a way that is eco-friendly, highly educational, and, best of all, at no cost to you. Once we have collected from your establishment, the payment will be BACS transferred to your bank within 5 working days. Funds for your organisation is calculated on the weight of donated items minus 20% commission to cover our costs.
