PROBLEM
When we clean out our closets, we often use three piles for clothing: keep, donate, and toss (or, landfill). Even though many Americans donate clothes, textiles still make up a shocking amount of the U.S. waste stream. The EPA reports that Americans generate 17 million tons of textile waste a year, equaling just over 6% of total municipal waste. On average, 700,000 tons of used clothing gets exported overseas and 2.5 million tons of clothing are recycled. But over three million tons are incinerated, and a staggering 11 million tons get sent to landfills.
We need to reduce textile waste and prevent burning or landfilling used clothing, which release tons of greenhouse gas emissions. Plus, it typically costs $45 per ton to dispose of textiles, equaling hundreds of millions of dollars per year, showing a clear economic case to reduce waste.
Donating clothes can also be problematic. Bagging up and dropping off these items might end their story in our minds, but it doesn’t signify the end of life for your shirt or pair of pants. Not by a long shot.
SOLUTION
Clothing waste has become one of the fastest-growing environmental issues of our time, with millions of pounds of textiles ending up in landfills each year. Fortunately, there are sustainable solutions that allow us all to make a difference. Donating gently used clothing through organizations like DonationsPickup.org ensures that reusable items are given a second life while supporting local charities and families in need. Repairing, reusing, and repurposing old garments — such as turning them into cleaning rags, quilts, or craft materials — helps reduce waste and encourages creativity. Choosing quality, long-lasting clothing over fast fashion also plays a vital role in preventing excess production and pollution. When items are no longer wearable, textile recycling programs can transform them into new products like insulation or industrial fibers instead of adding to landfill waste. Hosting or participating in community clothing drives is another effective way to promote responsible giving and collective action. By combining donation, repair, recycling, and awareness, we can create a more sustainable future — one closet at a time.
