Unauthorised Clothing Bins
In association with our partners at Recycled Clothing Banks, we work with local councils and organisations, including firms such as Tesco and Iceland, across the region to stop unauthorised clothing bins.
Unauthorised clothing bins are a headache for everyone: the council, the local community, genuine recycled clothing companies and legitimate registered charities.
How can you spot an illegal bin?
- The bin will be in very poor condition
- There is no wording that explains the aim of the charity
- There is no contact information available
- The bin is full, overspilling with bags left outside and generally hazardous
We will happily remove these unauthorised clothing bins from your area and make a £100 donation per bin to our charity partner, HandsOn London supporting our homeless community.
CHECK / REPORT A BIN
If you have a feeling a bin might not be genuine then before you put your clothes in why not check – we can search our comprehensive database which works with over 27 major councils around the country and major organisations from registered charities. We answer all emails within 24 hours giving you a piece of mind that your kind donation is going to the right organisation and if it’s an illegal bin it’s reported and removed.
