Recycling Rewards

For-profit · 430 drop-off points · 2 provinces/state, 88 cities · Official website

Recycling Rewards is a for-profit textile and used-goods collection company operating in Ontario, Canada, founded in 2005. It gathers reusable clothing and household items through drop-off donation bins and free curbside pickups, then resells them through thrift-retail partners (such as Talize) and recycles worn or damaged textiles into rags and stuffing rather than sending them to landfill. The company also runs fundraising clothing drives and bin-sponsorship programs and directs a portion of proceeds to community charities, including partners it names as Cornerstone and the SickKids Foundation.

What they accept : Gently used clothing, shoes and accessories along with household textiles (towels, curtains), kitchenware, books, toys, sporting goods, jewellery, décor, lamps and small electrical appliances — but not furniture, large appliances, mattresses, building materials, or wet/damaged clothing.
