We are an environmentally conscious company committed to making a difference by providing recycling service for your clothes and shoes. Recycling your clothes and shoes is one of the best things you can do for our environment! 4 million tons of used textiles is discarded annually in the United States.
The EPA estimates that only 16% of that is recycled. Despite the best efforts of our local charities, millions of tons of textiles still end up in our landfills. In fact, textile waste is a growing problem and the charities just cannot keep up. Companies like Friendship are able to make sure your used clothing and shoes never end up in landfills and insures that your clothing will be worn again by families both locally and around the world.

Services
Our mission is to get all usable clothing and textiles into the hands of people who need them and to eliminate clothing from the solid waste stream. Friendship Used Clothing is a North Carolina-based "Mom and Pop" business. We have worked in the recycling industry our entire lives and when we learned the statistics about the quickly growing problem of textiles filling up landfills, we knew it was a segment we needed to focus on.
Most of us are always trying to recycle what we can; our plastic bottles, our aluminum cans, our newspapers and cardboard. In many states and municipalities in the US, recycling these kinds of materials is not only encouraged, but often mandated. And that's a good thing. Our landfills are filling up fast.
Do not leave items outside a collection bin where nature (weather and animals) can damage or destroy them. Displays your support for the environment and enhances your image as an environmentally-conscious company. There are more than 500 textile recycling companies in the US managing the stream of used textiles.
