How to Use RCYCL and Rewear Bags

Decluttering your wardrobe? Here's how you can give your clothes a new purpose with our RCYCL & Rewear Bundle.

RCYCL Bag: For clothes that are no longer wearable and are at the end of their life. These items will be recycled to create new materials.

Rewear Bag: For wearable clothes that are still in good condition. These items will be donated to Salvos Stores, where they’ll find a new home with someone else.

Step
ONE

Purchase Your Bundle: Get your RCYCL & Rewear Bundle online or in one of our participating stores. The bundle includes fully compostable return bags for both types of clothing.

Step
TWO

Sort Your Clothes: Go through your wardrobe and decide what you no longer need or love.

  • Place unwearable items into the RCYCL bag for recycling.
  • Place wearable items into the Rewear bag for donation.
Step
THREE

Drop Off: Once your bags are filled, take them to a HUBBED parcel point near you. This will ensure your items are either recycled responsibly or rehomed through Salvos Stores.

Find a Hubbed ParcelPoint

With a network of 1400 local delivery, pickup and return locations – convenience stores, pharmacies, service stations – all open late and on weekends – all around Australia, there should be a Hubbed Parcel Point in your neighbourhood, close to home or work.
