Charlotte, NC
Every Pickup Makes a Difference
Here's what happens when Charlotte decides to do better with its clothes.
By the numbers
The cycle keeps growing.
How we sort
Three tiers. Zero waste.
Every item we pick up gets assessed and placed into the path where it can do the most good.
Best Condition — Resold
Clothes in great shape are washed, quality-checked, and listed in our resale shop. The proceeds help us keep pickups free and expand our reach across Charlotte.
Good Condition — Donated
Wearable clothes that aren't quite resale-ready go directly to Charlotte's homeless shelters and community organizations. Clean, folded, and delivered with care.
Worn Out — Repaired
Clothes too worn to wear aren't thrown away — they're sent to textile repair and recycling companies who break them down into new materials, insulation, or repaired garments.
Our partners
We don't do this alone.
The Clothing Cycle works alongside Charlotte's shelters, community organizations, and textile recycling companies to make sure every piece of clothing finds its best possible next chapter.
Homeless Shelters
We partner with shelters across Charlotte to deliver clean, sorted clothing donations on a regular basis.
Community Organizations
Local nonprofits and community groups help us identify neighborhoods and families who need clothing most.
Textile Repair Companies
Specialized partners who take worn-out garments and transform them into new materials, keeping fabric out of landfills.
