Donate clothes Tilburg

Donate clothing at EcoGents - give your clothing a real second life

Are you looking for a way to handle your clothing sustainably? Bee EcoGents in Tilburg we ensure that your clothing really gets a second life.

Many people think that clothing in a container automatically ends up in a safe place, but unfortunately that is often not the case. As soon as waste is thrown in or clothing gets wet, the entire batch is destroyed. Many donated pieces also end up in landfills in countries such as Chile or are ground into cleaning cloths. An eternal waste of clothing that can still be worn.

And even the big fashion chains don't always do what they promise. From a broadcast of Radar it turned out that clothing that was handed in to H&M traveled halfway around the world and often ended up in the landfill. Instead of being a circular solution, this turned out to be mainly greenwashing and marketing.

Clothes of a loved one

Sometimes you have clothing from a deceased loved one that feels too valuable to just throw in a container. At EcoGents we handle this with care and respect. We give these clothes new life — in a way that matches their memories. Read more about donating clothing from a loved one here.
