Charities (like Goodwill Industries and the Salvation Army) probably don like that you collect the clothes they would otherwise get, right?
We do not see Goodwill or the Salvation Army as competitors, and we do not want to collect the clothes they are already taking care of. The fact is that less than 15% of the clothes which are sold are collected again for recycling afterwards. 85% end up in landfills, which is a pity. There is enough to collect. People who normally give to charities will probably continue doing so, because they still support their causes, or they appreciate the tax-receipt they get. In our view, these people must certainly continue to do so. We are targeting people who do not find these options convenient enough and therefore don’t recycle all their clothes. > Return to top.
