Did you know that the average American throws away over 80 lbs of clothing each year? Most clothing can be reused or recycled! If your items are still wearable, you can donate them to a thrift store or post them in your local Buy Nothing group! If the fabric is torn or no longer wearable, you can cut it into cleaning cloths or drop it off at Remains for textile recycling! ♻️
