Recycle Old Shoes, Linens, Clothing, Accessories At Yukich Fields Textile Drive
Drop off old towels, linens, clothing or anything made of cloth at Evergreen Park's textile recycling drive April 26 at Yukich Fields.
EVERGREEN PARK, IL — The Village of Evergreen Park’s popular textile drive returns this Saturday, April 26. If you have old towels, curtains, linens, footwear, accessories (purses, hats, belts, etc.), clothing and anything made of cloth, don’t throw these items away where they’ll just end up in a landfill. Bring them to Yukich Field, 8900 S. Kedzie Ave., 9:30 a.m. to noon.
The Environmental Recycling Commission of Evergreen Park is sponsoring the textile recycling event in collaboration with USAgain. All materials will be recycled in the USAgain Tree Machine. More information on accepted items can be found here.
The Tree machine DOES NOT accept furniture, mattresses, rugs, carpet, or household appliances. Also, leaving items outside the Tree Machine is considered dumping and fly dumpers will be prosecuted.
