Barrie residents are invited to do some spring cleaning this week for the next curbside collection of textiles.
That includes clothing, linens and shoes.
Donating your items is easy:
- Look up your textile collection day (note that it will not be the same as your regular collection day for garbage, recycling and green bin material).
- Place your items in a bag (preferably a clear bag, but if you don’t have a clear bag, you can use any type of waterproof bag and put a label on the bag that says “textiles”)
- Put your items out on the curb on your textile collection day by 7 a.m., rain or shine.
Visit recyclingrewards.com/barrie or call 1-866-927-3873 to determine your collection day, to review the full list of acceptable items, or if you have questions.
Donations will support the Cornerstone to Recovery, a non-profit, charitable agency that provides community-based recovery programs for individuals and families experiencing and impacted by addiction. This collection links those wishing to part with unwanted reusable goods with those in need of them.
Curbside textile collection is happening next week! Gather up used clothing, pillows, bedding, towels, stuffed toys, & shoes, then place your items in a bag at your curb by 7am on your textile collection day!
