When you receive your Take Back Bag, simply fill it with up to 15 lbs of your old clothing and textiles, including items that are worn out or damaged. Then, use the pre-paid shipping label to send it back like an online return and you'll receive your reward. Once the bag is received, materials are sorted, grated and processed for recycling, upcycling, or reusing, ensuring minimal waste.

We accept all apparel items and socks, underwear, sheets, pillow cases, towels, linens, shoes, and handbags in any condition. Ripped, torn or stained, your oldies will get a new life with the help of our recycling partners and be diverted from landfills.

You can include any clothing or textiles, regardless of their condition or brand - Women's, Men's or Kids', we take it all. This includes coats, jeans with holes, hats and other accessories, socks, swimwear, underwear, shoes, bags, sheets and towels. Just make sure it's all clean! We are committed to rewarding you for keeping your old clothes out of the trash.
