Recycle/Repurpose/Reuse
Textiles
California's Responsible Textile Recovery Act will make textile recycling mandatory within a few years. In the meantime, here are two options for textile recycling:
- SUAY: SUAY IT FORWARD is a fully circular textile recycling program that collects textile waste from the community, repurposing it into remade apparel and home goods
- Goodwill will recycle what they can't resell. It's best to separate textiles you know won't be in good enough shape to be sold.
