I Helped out in a Charity shop - people are picky They don't buy tat,

you don't want stuff remaining on your racks/hangers, you want fast turnover

 

The Charity shop gets paid by weight for the stuff they recycle

 

----

 

I know a couple of charities in my area that recycle furniture etc to the needy and destitute

 

Even 'Charity cases'  want modern stuff - loads of the stuff gifted from Old peoples houses is sent straight to the Tip

 

Perfectly good furniture discarded because it is not Modern - even the most needy turn their noses up at it

 

We live in strange times

Please remember most of the Plastic bags, put through your letter boxes for Clothes are scams - very little goes to charity, from the people who pick stuff up in bags from your doorstep - donate it to known charity shops or in the large containers in car parks.
