Bring banks and charity shops will take textiles. Visit our Bring Banks page listing all sites that take textiles.
Although textiles would ideally be in good condition, even poor quality, ripped or soiled textiles - 'rag' - can be accepted in recycling bring banks. Put ‘rag’ type material into a clearly labelled bag before placing it in the bring bank.
Some charity shops will also take 'rag' type items. Check with individual charities directly to be sure what they are currently accepting.
Textiles can also be taken to Redbridge Household Waste Recycling Centre for recycling.
Oxford Freegle is a useful website for offering items to others for reuse.
