  • belts, purses and bags

Preparation Instructions:

Recycling Center Acceptance Guidelines:

  1. Separate all items into two types: usable clothing and textiles and worn out items (torn, stained, and unmatched shoes and socks)
  2. Bag the usable items separately from the worn items and place the bagged material in the appropriately labeled bin. Bagging the items insures that they will stay clean, dry and can be properly reused or recycled.
