We bet you have a few old shirts hanging in that closet. How about a few pairs of shoes you no longer wear? A couple of jackets? Well, if you are like most Americans you probably have all of these things filling up space somewhere in your home.
It is not always easy to part with old belongings, especially those with memories, but when you are considering those upcoming spring cleaning ideas, why not help out others by donating your old clothing?
From time to time we find clothes in the recycling bin. While clothes are not recyclable, they are absolutely reusable!
Some popular drop places include your local Salvation Army and Goodwill. Many churches, thrift stores and even some community centers also accept clothing donations. In addition, during Rialto's community cleanup events there are clothing drop boxes available.
Who knew spring cleaning wasn't just about cleaning out the cobwebs, but about helping out our fellow Californians?
Go green this spring and donate those unwanted clothes! Here's a video to get you in the spirit!
Do you donate your clothes? Have you done so in the past? What's your favorite way to recycle clothing? We'd love to know!
