Textile Recycling Drive

Free textile recycling drive!
We host these twice a year – every April and October! Donate your unwanted textiles so they can be recycled into new products!
Modern Saint Living organizes these events throughout New England and has diverted over 12,418 lbs of textiles from the landfill. We are so excited to be hosting this event in Keene, by partnering with Collection Helpsy. They are a Public Benefit Corporation and a Certified B Corp and the largest textile collection company in the Northeast US.
