Scotch Plains Partners With Helpsy for Sustainable Textile Recycling Program

Scotch Plains is partnering with Helpsy, a leading sustainable clothing and textile recycling company, to launch a  used clothing and accessory recycling program. This initiative aims to reduce waste, support environmental sustainability, and provide residents with an easy and accessible way to recycle unwanted clothing and accessories.

Helpsy will supply designated drop-off bins for used clothing, shoes, accessories, and household linens    —regardless of condition—as long as these items are dry and odor-free, helping to divert them from local landfills. The collected items will be repurposed for resale, reuse, and recycling. Residents can drop off their items for free at the DPW Yard at 2445 Plainfield Avenue Thursdays from 7:00 am to 2:00 PM. Please call (908) 233-6707 with any questions.
