Textiles

Textiles are clothes, sheets, cloths, towels, rags and any other textile items that cannot go in your kerbside collection bins (red, yellow or green bin). Some options for recycling textiles include: 

1. Reuse your items 
   Repurpose, reuse or rewear your items to increase its lifespan and make use of items you usually wouldn’t.
   
   
2. Donate 
   Textile items of quality condition can be recycled by donating them to a range of Op Shops.
