Clothes Collection
The objective of Planet Aid's Clothes Collection is to establish an efficient reuse system for second hand clothing. It is a locally based activity benefiting Planet Aid's development aid objectives, while also contributing to local and national goals for increased recycling.
This is how it works:
We place our clothes collection boxes in your neighborhood. You drop off your unwanted clothes, shoes, and small toys in a box.
Note: We can not accept appliances, furniture, or household goods. Please do not leave items outside our boxes.
The clothing is regularly collected by one of our drivers and brought to our warehouse. The clothing is then packaged for re-sale before being shipped out. The clothing is either re-sold in U.S. and Canada or overseas.
The proceeds from the sale of the clothing are used for community development projects in Africa and Asia.
This is all made possible by our yellow collection boxes. We routinely empty the boxes and assure that they are kept as neat as possible. When necessary, we switch boxes in need of repair.
We would like to thank our site hosts for generously donating space in their parking lots for our collection boxes. Their help is key to our success!
