What To Do With Old But Wearable Clothing

March 9, 2011

This weekend I got a great email from a woman looking to find a new home for her post weight loss clothing. Here are a few suggestions: Friends looking through closet

Dressed for Success would love any career/work or business attire you have in plus sizes. If you haven’t heard of them they are a non-profit organization that provides “interview suits, confidence boosts, and career development to low-income women”. There may be a location in your area or a facility you can mail a box to.
The second option is to donate/sell the clothes to Re/Dress. It started out as sort of a swap meet for plus size clothing but has turned into the top site for second hand plus size clothing! If you live in the area you may make a few bucks or you can mail them your donation.
And if you have the time and inclination you might try posting your items on eBay. For convenience and time I would post everything as a lot of clothes (list everything under one auction); especially if making money is not your focus.

If you have other suggestions for second hand clothes please leave them in the comments!
