A Cleaner, Easier Way to Support Reuse before Recycling


Introduced in 2019, our solar powered Clothing Drop Spots offer a modern alternative to traditional clothing bins, with easy donation access at over 100 shopping centers.

Clothing Drop Spots make it easy to donate clothes and shoes you no longer need in a clean, secure, and convenient way.

Open 24 hours a day, helping families clear out their closets while extending the life of clothing, supporting reuse, and growing a greener future with every pound collected.

19 MILLION PEOPLE CLOTHED


Our Drop Spots turn everyday errands into an easy opportunity to give clothes and shoes a second life.

1 BILLION POUNDS COLLECTED


We extend the life of clothing and conserve valuable resources. Reuse extends the life of a garment and is 70x more sustainable than producing new clothing. 

1.7 MILLION TREES PLANTED


We remove carbon pollution from the atmosphere, mitigate global warming and improve the lives of struggling farmers by planting a tree for every ten bags of gently used clothes and shoes collected.

100+ CLOTHING DROP SPOTS INSTALLED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE SINCE 2019 AND EXPANDING


Found in local shopping centers and regional retail hubs across the country, our modern Drop Spots give everyone a cleaner, more convenient way to pass along clothes and shoes for reuse.

Why support reuse before recycling?

Reuse Before Recycling Matters

Reusing clothes, shoes, and accessories extends the life of items that are already made, saving energy, water, and resources that would otherwise be used in recycling or manufacturing processes. While recycling still plays a role, reuse creates the greatest impact by keeping items in use longer and supporting families and communities who rely on secondhand. In California, SB 707, the Responsible Textile Recovery Act, reinforces this approach by prioritizing reuse and responsible textile recovery to reduce clothing waste and keep materials out of landfills.

Where Do My Items Go?

The clothes, shoes, and accessories you drop off are collected and sold at low cost to families in Central America who depend on secondhand clothing to make a living. These items help support local markets, small businesses, and households by providing affordable clothing and income opportunities. By choosing reuse, your items continue to serve a purpose while helping families support themselves and their communities.

Do Your Part

for a Greener Future

The average U.S. consumer throws away 81.5 pounds of clothing every year. That adds up to more than 11 million tons of textiles ending up in landfills — about 85% of all discarded clothing.


The good news?


It doesn’t have to be that way.


Our modern Clothing Drop Spots make reuse easy, clean, and convenient — giving your clothes and shoes a second life while helping communities move toward a more sustainable future.


And for every 10 bags of clothes collected, we plant a tree. 🌳

Because when it comes to protecting the planet, every small action adds up.
