Some people in the countryside recycle old clothes for 50 cents a catty. What are they used for? Did you really earn thousands of dollars this day?

Some people choose to throw away used clothes, some choose to sell them, and some choose to donate them.

It's easy to understand how to throw away and donate, but the sale has attracted many friends' collections, not only the question of how much they can sell, but also the industry of recycling old clothes, such as where are the recycled old clothes? What is this for? Can you make money by recycling old clothes?

In this article, I will tell you in detail how to recycle old clothes. After reading the above questions, you will have the answer.

Let me ask you a question first. Where are all your old clothes? As far as I know, friends who live in the countryside for a long time will throw away old clothes, while friends who live in the city will throw them away and donate them.

However, in recent years, with the increase of recycling old clothes in villages and urban streets, more and more friends choose to sell old clothes. Although it is only a few cents per catty, it is better than throwing it away directly.

The question is, where did the old clothes go after recycling? What is this for? In view of this problem, the author made a detailed inquiry at an old clothes recycling point in our county (not necessarily completely true, but it can also be used for reference). At the same time, I also discussed with some friends and got the following four points:

1. Sort the recycled old clothes. If it is 80% new, it will be sold as new clothes after cleaning.

Thin and thick clothes should also be distinguished, and famous brands and ordinary clothes should also be distinguished. This channel is the most profitable. When recycling, a piece of clothing may cost 50 cents, but it can be sold for tens or hundreds of dollars after renovation.

However, these jobs are generally not done by people who recycle old clothes, but are handed over to the next higher level, and some people deal with them specially.

In other words, people who go to the countryside to recycle old clothes, or those who recycle old clothes around the county town, also earn the difference, for example, 50 cents a catty, selling 7-8 cents a catty, real money is still on a higher level.

2. Export to some relatively poor countries.

The recycled old clothes are selected, disinfected and packaged and sent to some underdeveloped countries abroad, such as parts of India.

This way does exist, but it is not something that anyone or any company can do. Recycled old clothes are a few cents a catty, and they may sell for tens of yuan a catty when they are taken abroad.

Although the cost will increase after a series of measures such as screening and transportation, the overall profit of the company that can really do this will be great because it is shipped abroad in very large quantities.

3. Recycle raw materials.

After recycling, old clothes may be processed into other products. For example, clothes made of different materials are classified, made into thermal insulation cotton, covered in agricultural greenhouses or made into rubber gloves. In addition, they can also be made into felt on the construction site.

Maybe it takes a lot of clothes to make a thermal insulation cotton, and the recycled clothes cost a few cents a catty. However, the price of a thermal insulation cotton may cost tens of yuan. Therefore, there are many ways to recycle old clothes.

4. Donate to poverty-stricken areas.

Old clothes are recycled, cleaned and disinfected, and donated to poor areas. Some people will say, since you have donated, why not donate new clothes? There may be reasons such as budget, and the cost of old clothes is relatively low. In addition, after washing and disinfection, old clothes look similar to new clothes.

Not all old clothes can be donated, and they need to be selected in advance.

Seeing this, some friends will say, since recycling old clothes is so profitable, it's a good idea for me to recycle old clothes. But in practice, there are still great risks. As the saying goes, "Interlacing is like a mountain." Don't try it easily if you haven't recycled old clothes.

First, there are standards for recycling old clothes, and we should also learn the classification of materials. Different materials have different prices. Don't say anything else, the correct understanding and classification of materials are all processes that need to be learned.

Second, how to determine the recycling price? What material is this dress? how much is it? These all need to guide people, and we can't do them blindly.

Third, there is a need for recycling channels. The recycling channel mentioned here is who to sell old clothes to after receiving them. If there is no recycling channel, don't do it, that is a dead end.

Fourth, there are certain risks in recycling clothes. For example, some dirty clothes will be recycled, or clothes with blood stains do not rule out the risk of carrying infectious diseases.

Can you make money by recycling old clothes? Some people earn money, others don't. As far as I know, some people recycle old clothes in the county. In good times, they can earn about 1000 yuan a day. Of course, there are also bad times when they don't earn a penny and have to pay the rent.

Mainly depends on the amount of clothes recycled every day. The greater the recovery, the greater the profit.

Although recycling old clothes is profitable, many people lose money. The reason is that they don't understand, follow the crowd and listen to others to make money, so they will recycle themselves.

So, don't invest blindly.

One more thing to note, especially for friends living in cities, was reported last year. Everyone thought that the donation box of love clothes in the community would be sent to the poor people. In fact, some clothes in the love box were sold to others by some unscrupulous people, which is not entirely correct.

Therefore, everyone should pay attention to donating clothes, and it is recommended to donate at the designated place.

The above is about the recycling of old clothes. what do you think of it ?
