TRAID

West London Waste Authority has partnered with TRAID to collect all your unwanted clothes and shoes directly from your home.

This new convenient service allows you to book collections for when you are home, so your textiles can be given directly to the driver.

You can donate any of your old unwanted clothes, including shoes, accessories and linen, in a clean condition. Please note duvets or pillows cannot be accepted.

By donating all your old unwanted textiles to TRAID, you’ll be taking them out of the waste stream and preventing fly tipping within your area.

TRAID is a registered charity (297498) raising funds to fight global poverty and improve the environment by reducing textile waste within the UK.

To book your free collection of textiles with TRAID, please call 0208 8733 2580 (option 1), email recycling@traid.org.uk or visit the TRAID website.
