Recover's Closed Loop Bin: Old Shirt Donation
We're partnering with Recover's Closed Loop Bin Program for 2024's Turkey Trail Trot & The Leftovers Race! Recover is on a mission to keep old shirts out of landfills. "Every product we make, we take back, we recycle, we transform, and we keep out of landfills. Together we are helping earth Recover. We are proud to offer individuals, retailers, and large-scale partners a way to keep old or unused t-shirts and other apparel items out of the landfill. We will take your old shirts and give them infinite life by recycling them back into our sustainable supply chain."
How does this work?
- Participants, spectators, and volunteers have the opportunity to drop off old shirts (any brand!) at Early Packet Pickup and on Thursday's and Friday's race day (bin pictured below)
- We will ship the bin back to Recover
- They will turn your old shirts into new apparel here!
