Find A Good Home For The Old Clothes For The Season.

It's time for another season. What do you do with a lot of old clothes in your house? Let's see what's the best way to do it.

On the two days, the weather in Xicheng gradually turned cool, and many people had changed into autumn clothes.

Autumn is really coming. Many housewives begin to rearrange the wardrobe.

Gradually replace autumn clothes.

Ms. Chen, who lives in Huishan Ya Yuan, was worried. During the process of sorting out clothes, she found that many embarrassment clothes were almost zero in the past two years, but they looked quite new, and they threw them away.

Later, when I was walking in the community, I suddenly noticed that there was a green old clothes recycling box at the gate of the community recently, and the "embarrassing" clothes of her family finally had a "home of destination".

Old clothes recycling boxes are very popular.

There is a good place for idle clothes. "Old clothes treasure" can swallow tons of clothes a year.

Lihu residential area is divided into three areas: A, B and C. Each area has an old clothes dropping box.

When interviewed in the C District, the reporter happened to meet Aunt Huang who came to throw old clothes.

"Every year my family will add quite a lot of old clothes, all of which used to be sent to the relatives in the countryside. Now everyone's living conditions are good, and they are not willing to do so."

Aunt Huang said that her clothes were kept in place, and there was no way to donate. After having the old clothes recycling bin, her old clothes were sent here.

He, who lives in A District, said that the recycling bin is not just for recycling clothes simply, but also for everyone to participate in the activities of offering love.

"Every time I bring my grandson to deliver old clothes, I can cultivate children's love from an early age."

A cleaning agent in the district said that the utilization rate of these old clothes recycling boxes is very high.

A few days ago, someone had come to pull the old clothes away to the warehouse. He saw trousers, coats, scarves and sweaters.

"The community has made a lot of efforts to get residents to accept old clothes recycling bins."

Mei Hu community staff said that after the old clothes recycling bin entered the residential area, they first trained the head of the building, residential security and property workers, and asked them to explain to the residents the methods of using the old clothes recycling boxes, and told the residents to wash the old clothes before they could be put into operation.

The recycle bin will only be collected once every day for about 20 days when it first entered the residential area. Now the average 3~4 days will be collected once.

A few tons of old clothes have been collected over the past year.

Many communities are equipped with old clothes recycling boxes.

Some utilization rate is as high as 90%.

It is understood that some areas in Binhu District, Beitang District, new district and Chong an District are equipped with old clothes recycling boxes.

Among them, the Binhu District was the first to do so.

Binhu District Urban Management Bureau responsible for the introduction of sanitation, at the end of 2013, the United States Lake community began to configure the old clothes recycling box.

In 2014, the pilot project of the old clothes recycling box in Binhu District began to concentrate on the work. In the more than 50 districts, there were more than 160 sets of old clothes recycling boxes (two in each group).

This year, the plan will be deployed in 9 districts, and will be deployed before the end of September.

Some residential areas are equipped with three or four old clothes recycling boxes because of the large supply of clothing.

The distribution of old clothes is also divided into the peak season and the off-season. Generally, the season is the peak season for the residents to handle the old clothes. The recycling bin is soon filled, and the recycling company has to pull twice a week.

"From the feedback of recycling companies, the utilization rate of these old clothes recycling bins is quite high, and even a few recycling companies want to enter."

Binhu District Urban Management Bureau responsible for Environmental Hygiene Department said.

In 2014, a total of nearly 100 tons of clothing were collected in the more than 50 districts in the Binhu District.

Beitang district began to deploy old clothes recycling boxes in some districts in early 2015.

At present, 128 boxes have been installed at 84 locations in 4 streets.

In the past six months, about 130 tons of waste fabrics have been collected.

Beitang District Urban Management Bureau Public branch staff introduction, these residents of the old fabric recycling consciousness is very high, some residential boxes even not enough time for the first time to vacate, individual residents also told the streets that the box is full, I hope to clean up and pull away.

The overall utilization rate of the old clothes recycling box is over 90%.

Refine the source classification of garbage

Many recycling companies are stationed in the community.

The head of the Comprehensive Development Department of the environmental sanitation department of Wuxi said that the allocation of old clothes recycling boxes is actually a refinement of the source classification of garbage. In the past, many citizens threw the old clothes directly into the trash cans, and eventually pported them to the incineration plants and landfill sites with other rubbish, which is not only a waste of resources, but also a large amount of freight.

At the end of 2013, a market recovery company took the initiative to find the sanitation department, and put forward the intention to enter the community to recycle old clothes.

In order to supervise and guide the marketization companies, the environmental sanitation department requires them to go to the relevant departments such as industry and Commerce for the record.

Then he took the lead in the Binhu District.

Since then, the recycling companies in the market have begun to grow more slowly and extend their tentacles to other regions.

Some recycling companies directly connect with communities and streets, and configure old clothes recycling boxes.

The official admitted that although this practice is more popular with residents in the District, but because the environmental sanitation and urban management departments can only guide and supervise the recycling of the old clothes of the recycling companies, the terminal disposal of these clothes can not be clearly controlled. If the terminals of these clothes are not standardized or irregularities, it is also worrying.

Where did the old clothes go, donated, processed, made in the greenhouse, and exported.

Where are these old clothes collected from the residents' homes? Mr. Sun, director of the Jiangsu Yu Kang Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the recycling of old clothes in Binhu District, introduces the classification of the old clothes. Then there are 4 main purposes: some clothes that look brand new, donated to charity after cleaning and disinfection, and some clothes can be reprocessed, such as woollen sweaters with a wool content of more than 90% can be re crushed and reprocessed; some of the better clothing will be exported to Africa after the corresponding treatment, and the remaining useless clothes can be used as thermal insulation materials for greenhouse.

Mr. Sun said that his company is one of the earliest companies engaged in the recycling of old clothes in the Wuxi market, which is also a new industry. The same type of companies have gradually increased in the past two years.

The main cost of the recycling company is the cost of box equipment and pportation, but with the recycling of old clothes, the recycling company still has profits.

New district "love chest" public welfare project

After the old clothes are cleaned and sterilized, they are sent to foreign affairs.

Worker

Different from Binhu District and Beitang District, the old clothes recycling box allocation in New District is a public welfare project launched by the New District Sunshine people's service center, which is called "Love Wardrobe".

The project operates through collecting, sorting, cleaning, disinfecting, drying and ironing items in the community and school.

At present, the main service targets are migrant workers and their families, poverty-stricken families and remote mountainous areas.

The "love chest" public welfare project began in 2014, and began to reclaim old clothes mainly through large-scale charity activities.

In April 2015, under the support of love enterprises, the project group placed 17 old clothes recycling boxes in 22 communities of Wang Zhuang and Jiangxi street.

Residents can put idle or unwanted clothes in the recycling bin, and volunteers are regularly collected, cleaned and sterilized before they can be given to those in need.

Since 2014, the "Love Wardrobe" project team has held 62 events, covering 14 construction sites in the city, serving 4000 migrant workers and distributing more than 8000 garments.

"Love chest" donation hotline, helpline (difficult residents or emergency situations such as fire need to be free to receive clothes when you can dial):68750512.

Old clothes recycling faces embarrassment

Some people deliberately broke up, some of the recycling bin became garbage cans.

Over the past few days, reporters visited several communities of old clothes recycling bins also found some embarrassment.

Some residential areas will be used for binning old clothes recycling bins and garbage bins, which are inevitably mistaken for garbage bins.

Ms. Zhang, a resident of Yuxi garden, said that at the beginning of this year, she was planning to sort out some old bags.

When entering the recycle bin, it was found that there were many plastic bags, wastepaper, unused old slippers and other domestic garbage.

Chen aunt, who lives in Lixi yuan, also has concerns. "Before I saw someone deliberately broke down, throwing cigarette butts into the recycling bin.

All of them are clothes and thrown into cigarette butts can easily cause fires.

The residents also expressed their concern: "if I put old clothes in, I will be taken by a conscientious person, hanging up a tag and packaging it for sale again, just like foreign garbage."

In the course of operation, the recycling personnel also found some problems, such as someone to pry the lock, destroy the box and so on.

"Old clothes for new faces" have considerable benefits, but lack of supervision measures.

"The reprocessing and utilization of waste clothing is becoming more and more mature abroad, but the water has just been tested at home. If these clothes are effectively used, the effect will be very significant."

According to the relevant data, China's textile materials account for 52% of the total global resources, and the Chinese consume 50 million tons of textile raw materials annually, according to a teacher at the textile and garment Institute of Jiangnan University.

Waste products, such as scraps, are up to 20 million tons per year.

About 40% of them are waste clothes, that is about 8 million tons.

These clothes are mostly made of chemical fibers, which have poor degradability. During the production process, they have undergone many processes such as weaving, bleaching and dyeing. They are accompanied by more pollution. If they are burned or buried together with waste, they will generate three wastes in pportation, landfill and incineration, and cause two pollution to the environment.

He said that if the annual production of 20 million tons of waste textiles can achieve 60% of the comprehensive utilization rate, it can provide 9 million 400 thousand tons of chemical fiber annually, equivalent to 18 million tons of crude oil, and 4 million 700 thousand tons of natural fiber, equivalent to 16 million mu of cultivated land.

"The old clothing recycling industry has a bright future, but there are few standardized operations."

A textile industry insider said that it faced multiple problems such as technical bottlenecks, standardized operation and so on.

"Some enterprises now accept

It is very irregular. Some of them are categorization, no matter where they go, some of them are not standardized. They are even sold to those hawkers.

In addition, the recycling boxes are not specially managed. Most of them need the public to take care of themselves. Moreover, there is no disinfection standard for the old clothes donated countries, and there are no standards for sanitation, inspection and quarantine, and environmental protection.

Therefore, it is necessary for the government departments to have some regulatory measures to make the people feel more secure. "
