Save Your Local Clothing Community Recycling Banks on Pascoe Vale Road in Glenroy!

Your local clothing community recycling banks are under threat of being removed by council. 15,333 locals use these clothing banks, operated by Australia’s largest and trusted clothing and small household goods recycler SCR GROUP, each year, bringing traffic to small businesses. In addition to the free and beneficial service provided to the community, they divert 92,000kg of clothing and small household goods from landfill, save City of Moreland Council over $220,800 in landfill fees, and have a huge environmental impact. By diverting this amount from landfill, we are saving over 17,000,000 litres of water (equivalent to almost 7 Olympic sized swimming pools), preventing 8,044 tonnes of CO-e from entering our atmosphere (equivalent to taking 1,870 cars off the road per year) and saving 6,817,200 kWh of energy (equivalent to powering 1,038 Australian homes for one year).

These clothing recycling banks have been at this location for 20 years and don't have a high rate of illegal dumping, are well managed and serviced weekly. Show your support by signing this petition today!
