The DeKalb County Sanitation Division is delighted to introduce the shoe and clothing recycling program, a partnership

with the Atlanta branch of USAgain.

USAgain is a for-profit company that collects unwanted textiles and resells them in the U.S. and abroad, effectively diverting millions of pounds of clothing from landfills, generating new revenue streams for U.S. businesses and non-profits, and fueling local economies in emerging countries. It is their mission to make a positive impact for people and planet by operating a sound and sustainable business, following the highest ethical standards. Their goal is to make textile

reuse easy and convenient and maximize waste reduction.
