How Clothes Bin Recycling Works
Annually, some 17 billion pounds of textiles end up in U.S. landfills. Textile waste occupies 5 percent of all landfill space, but 85 percent of this waste is preventable with a proper recycling program. Clothes Bin® offers protected territories to our franchisees, who follow a proven business model based on our many years of experience in the recycling industry.
You’ll place our recycling Bins in strategic locations around the Indianapolis area, such as busy shopping centers, schools, convenience stores, and religious organizations. Residents will drop off their pre-loved clothing and shoes in the Bins.
Clothes Bin® is bringing textile recycling to the 21st century with BLIP® (Bin® Location Information Program). It monitors each Bin and alerts the franchisee whenever a Bin approaches its capacity and needs to be serviced.
This innovative BLIP® technology also allows you to analyze operations across your territory and performance at each individual Bin.
When it’s time to scale up operations, contact the Clothes Bin headquarters to add more Bins within your territory.
