<h2>Sorting: The First Step in Clothes Recycling</h2><p>When clothes arrive at our recycling facility, the first step is sorting. We separate items based on their type, material, and condition. This helps us decide the best way to recycle each piece.</p><p>We have trained staff who manually sort through the clothes. They look for items that are still wearable and those that are not. Wearable clothes are set aside for donation, while non-wearable items move on to the next stage.</p><figure id="figure-t5pz445ziplwz2p5hh"><img id="t5pz445ziplwz2p5hh" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/17jAsxtlxzMzuNuYthhXmfJrkpEN2330mh5Tru2dCuNqlxl2KGkDdG8p7Q9qiCl8.jpg" alt="clothes sorting" title="clothes sorting" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="null" data-positiony="null" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/17jAsxtlxzMzuNuYthhXmfJrkpEN2330mh5Tru2dCuNqlxl2KGkDdG8p7Q9qiCl8.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><h3>Why Sorting Matters</h3><p>Sorting is crucial because it ensures that each item is treated appropriately. Proper sorting helps us maximize the life of wearable clothes and find the best recycling method for non-wearable items. This step reduces waste and supports our mission of helping those in need.</p><h2>Washing: Preparing Clothes for Their Next Life</h2><p>After sorting, the next step is washing. We wash all donated clothes to ensure they are clean and safe for their next use. Clean clothes are more appealing to those who receive them, and it helps maintain hygiene standards.</p><figure id="figure-tyqje3rtalwz2p8lh"><img id="tyqje3rtalwz2p8lh" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/0zBA8B28GB4WTRojQrPZguPkFUm0B5S1zKvDTYysDh5hNUVe7R5SdMW5MBHC761W.jpg" alt="clothes washing" title="clothes washing" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="null" data-positiony="null" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/0zBA8B28GB4WTRojQrPZguPkFUm0B5S1zKvDTYysDh5hNUVe7R5SdMW5MBHC761W.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><p>&lt;h</p><p>We use different washing techniques based on the material of the clothes. For delicate fabrics, we use gentle cycles and mild detergents. For more durable items, we use stronger washing methods to ensure they are thoroughly cleaned.</p><h3>Eco-Friendly Practices</h3><p>Our washing process is designed to be eco-friendly. We use energy-efficient machines and biodegradable detergents. This helps us minimize our environmental impact while ensuring the clothes are clean and ready for use.</p><figure id="figure-h8yxbqt3rlwz2pb2e"><img id="h8yxbqt3rlwz2pb2e" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/22FQi32si4OaMZuSDndrbFrT20Z8eYFFaFFypPiVerj00sfZv0BMNv79nQbhB3XK.jpg" alt="Drying the clothes" title="Drying the clothes" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionx="null" data-positiony="null" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/22FQi32si4OaMZuSDndrbFrT20Z8eYFFaFFypPiVerj00sfZv0BMNv79nQbhB3XK.jpg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;"></figure><p>the clothes are washed, they go through a final quality check. We look for any remaining stains, tears, or issues that need fixing.

These groups help get the clothes to people who need them most. Non-wearable items are sent to specialized recycling facilities where they are turned into new products.</p><h3>The Impact of Your Donations</h3><p>Your donations make a big difference. By recycling clothes, you help reduce waste and support those in need. Each item you donate goes through a careful process to ensure it is used in the best possible way.</p><figure id="figure-u8xjft7jb2lwz2pe5p"><img id="u8xjft7jb2lwz2pe5p" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/8Z8zF7EgGmRw7obE5qVgiTMOefDAqzUEYMfLCAnYfp3p4O75mbgyTK9naUTh6Yfc.jpg" alt="ready for packing" title="ready for packing" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionX="null" data-positionY="null" data-fullWidth="false"/></figure><p><br></p>
