An unwanted pile of garments

The problem and the solution

Australians throw out an approx 25kg of textiles per year into landfill. The guilt surrounding lack of options to recycle can now be subsided.

Recycling not waste

It can get confusing. What is the difference between waste streams and recycling? A lot actually. Unlike waste there are many processes involved in recycling.

Empowered as a consumer

TRA appreciates your effort in recycling your unwanted textiles. There is a long road ahead as we recycle instead of dispose. Thank you for being part of change.

Why am I being charged?

TRA is not a charity, but an organisation working towards the circular economy. We process unwanted apparel and textiles to turn them back into new yarn for new products. Here are some points to consider when enquiring about our services.

Our service is at a cost because we are a business that employs staff locally and abroad to sort, clean, shred and process unwanted textiles. We do not receive subsidies from governments or councils to do the work we do. Our service is recycling, not a conventional waste stream.

Please respect our team members with your enquiries as we respect yours.

Do you have more than 80kg of textile waste for pick-up?

Make an enquiry to discuss how we can arrange a textile pick-up of your larger volumes of clothing, linen and textiles you want to recycle.
