Benefits

Top 3 Reasons to donate your usable clothing and household items to one of our local nonprofit partners:

 

1. Responsible Recycling Helps Our Planet!

Recycling the clothing and household items you no longer need or want is a responsible choice when it comes to lessoning the impact on our environment. That same stuff that is overloading closets & attics across the country is also overloading our landfills locally. Giving your usable clothing and household items a second chance by recycling them is a far better option than simply throwing them away.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency’s 1988 study on the United States Generation of Solid Waste, textiles alone (clothing, shoes, and other types of usable cloth items) account for some 3.9 million tons of the solid waste stream. A number of waste composition studies indicate that this unrecovered textile waste accounts for approximately 4 percent of the content of our landfills. Sadly, these numbers are increasing year after year! When you choose to donate your usable items to one of our local nonprofit partners, you help lessen the negative impact on our environment.

Go Green – Reduce, Reuse & Recycle! Help keep usable items out of our local landfills – recycling your usable stuff is a great way to help protect our Earth!

2. Giving Back LOCALLY Makes a Difference to Others!

When it comes to getting rid of your unwanted/unneeded usable clothing & household items, there are many different choices to consider. Sure, you can try to sell your items through online auctions, lists, or consignment stores, but all of those options require a personal investment of time and effort. Sometimes the return is simply not worth all of the hassle.

ReUseIt provides free services that make it really convenient and easy to donate your usable items to one of our local nonprofit partners! When you donate your usable clothing and household items to one of our local nonprofit partners, you will receive a receipt for your tax deductible household donations.

Your generous household donations make a big difference to people within our local communities. There are several organizations that collect household donations, but so often the benefit creates little or no impact in our local community. ReUseIt chooses to partner with well-established local nonprofit organizations, as we believe it is important for the funding generated through our Household Recycling Program partnerships to directly benefit people in our local communities.

Giving back LOCALLY is a wonderful way to support our communities!
