At Keilor Central you can recycle your unused clothing, handbags or shoes via the King Cotton donation bins located in the North car park (near the Aldi entrance).
According to King Cotton, 85% of all unwanted clothing in Australia ends up in rubbish bins. Let’s work towards reducing this!
Since 1980 King Cotton has prevented 200,000 TONNES of unwanted clothing destined for landfill. In addition;
Approximately six million kilos of clothing is recycled annually through this program
up to 95% of donated materials are reused or recycled both locally and by developing countries and
Over $1.5 million have been donated to charity partners such as the ‘Make a wish’ foundation.
Did you know that every kilo of recycled clothing saves over 6000 litres of water in the reproduction of cotton.
So, next time you go through your clothes instead of placing them in the rubbish bin, drop them at one of our donation bins at Keilor Central to do your part in helping a circular economy.
