Over the past years the nature of textile recycling has changed dramatically. One of the factors that have lead to this change has been the strategic placement of clothes drop boxes in communities. To recycling operators these units are no longer merely an optional service point, but they are developing into a matter of standard, and even necessary, part of a contemporary and effective collection system. The change has been fuelled by the strong consumer desire to be able to easily recycle their products and the virtues of convenience that these boxes give them.
The Increasing need to recycle the textiles
The awareness of people on the environmental effects of the textile waste is at an all time high. Consumers are actively looking into how they can remove clothing off the landfills and transform to a more circular economy. Nevertheless, the goodwill is often limited to a realistic limit: the inaccessibility of the drop-off points. Textiles are hardly accepted in curbside recycling and can be very hard to find in specific recycling centers. Here, clothes drop boxes play a very important role where there is a gap. Recycling operators can exploit this demand through erection of these boxes in convenient locations with high traffic such as parking lots of supermarkets or community halls. They offer a 24/7, self service solution, which is in line with the current consumer trends and it is easy to do the right thing. This to the operators translates to a constant and augmented supply of recyclable materials which is the bloodline of their business.
Increasing the Operational Effectiveness and Safety
Operation-wise, the standardized clothes drop boxes are a step in the right direction as far as efficiency and cost control is concerned. JDY Hardware CO., LTD appreciates that to the operators of the recycling process, all process in the collection process should be streamlined. Our clothes drop boxes are designed in such a way that they overcome fundamental challenges of operations. They are strong and reliable in their construction, which guarantees them a long service period, with minimal maintenance costs, low long-term cost and a reduced number of replacements. One of their main characteristic features is a locking system that makes the design of these items secure to avoid theft and weather erosion of the donations held by these materials. This security is crucial in the preservation of integrity of the materials collected and that they get to the sorting facility. More so, the design gives consideration to capacity and easy collection. The emptying of the boxes happens easily with huge intake chutes and well-defined access points to the authorized collection teams which save precious time and work. This enables operators to travel a longer distance using the available resources.
