    I'm moving & need to throw out old clothes. They're mostly shirts & ties, some blazers. I don't have any of those bags they drop through the door. Who is the best to give them to?

    Bring them to a charity shelter or shop. Barnardos, Oxfam.

    alot of those bags or stickers that come through the door are false charities,they collect what they want and sell the clothes off.Heard on the radio.
    Your best bet is to bring them into a charity shop if theyre in a good way otherwise recycle them.

    Tbh, this is not quite a personal issue (not in the usual style here anyway!) But the yellow clothes bins are starting to spring up everywhere. I use our local ones regularly. Anywhere there is a recycling centre theres one. I will hazard a guess that you live in Dublin, but if not with a quick interweb search you are flying:

    But this should help.

    Mrs Quinn charity shops support and provide services for the Blind. A very good cause, also Threshold charity shops support people with housing problems another worthy cause. Charity shops love to get donations from clothes, linens, bric-a-brac, books, linens...
