No Fuss Clothes Recycling

Filed under: Home, Tips

We did a bit of spring cleaning here recently that resulted in piles of unwanted clothing. In addition to paint splattered sweatpants and t-shirts from the early 1990’s, we additionally had items that had never been worn or old suits that were still in good condition.

I knew better than to throw the items out but as we are a one car family, I wasn’t certain when I’d manufacture it by to Goodwill to drop off the clothes. Fortunately I remembered seeing a flier for the Vietnam Veterans of America’s donation program. The organization will pick up donated items from your house and leave you will a receipt for tax

aims. They in turn sell the clothes to thrift shops and use the proceeds to fund veteran programs.

It took me three minutes to go online and schedule a pick up. Someone came the very next day and carted off our two huge bags of clothes. that is by far the easiest way that I have found for cleaning out the closets and the tax deduction doesn’t hurt either.
