Drop-Off Locations
We can collect your unwanted clothes from your home, so they can be reused and benefit people elsewhere. This helps to reduce landfill, supports countries in need and makes the world a better and more sustainable place. Not only that, for any suitable items we collect and recycle, we pay you cash.
To find out if we collect in your area just enter your postcode below.
Empty your wardrobe of any unwanted clean clothes, shoes or fashion accessories.
Book a free collection or visit one of our drop-off locations.
We will perform a quick check to ensure your goods can be reused.
We will then weigh your bags to find out how much we owe you.
We pay you in cash, cheque - or you can donate it to a nominated charity.
We accept clothes and these other items listed below in good condition that can then be reused.
Bad quality, wet, damp, or dirty clothing • Clothing with animal hair or bad odours • Damaged or heavily worn clothing • Traditional clothing • Workwear and corporate clothing • Personalised and event clothing • Socks, underwear, dressing gowns, or pyjamas (except new) • School or work uniforms • Duvets, pillows, cushions, heavy curtains, heavy blankets, throws, and sleeping bags • Books, CDs and DVDs.
If your clothes are in good condition, then they’re likely to be of value to someone else – meaning there’s money to be made! 30% of clothes in an average household have not been worn for over a year and with an average value of £4000 in your wardrobes and cupboards that’s quite a big deal. Why not have a wardrobe clear-out and get cash for your old clothes, as well as giving your unwanted clothes a second life?
Drop-Off LocationsDid you know an estimated £140 million worth (around 350,0000 tonnes) of used clothing goes to landfill in the UK every year? Selling your unwanted clothes for cash at a Smart Recycling drop-off point isn't just good for the environment and your wallet, it also helps people all around the world to be able to afford good-looking, quality clothing. Furthermore, Smart Recycling works with local businesses in the destination markets to arrange transport and help sell your used clothing - creating new jobs and strengthening local economies along the way!
We can accept good condition: adults, children’s and baby clothes, shoes, handbags, bras, hats, belts, curtains, towels and bed linen (but no duvets or pillows please, sorry). We also accept donations bric-a-brac; such as antiques, clocks, kitchenware, musical instruments, ornaments, pictures, sports equipment, tools, toys, and utensils.
Please note: We gratefully accept donations of bed linen, towels, curtains, and bric-a-brac. However, we are unable to provide payment for these items.
