Donate Your Textiles Curbside
Castro Valley Sanitary District (CVSan)’s next Textile Collection Week will be from October 7th – 11th! During this week, set out your clothing and other textiles curbside to be collected for reuse.
Participating is easy. Set out bagged, clean textiles by 6:00 a.m. curbside on your collection day and ensure bags are visible to the Alameda County Industries (ACI) driver. Do not place bags behind or on top of carts. Textiles will be collected with a special vehicle that may service your block earlier or later than the regular vehicles.
Single-family residents: Set out textiles on your regular collection day.
Multi-family residents: Check with your property manager for your textile collection day or visit cvsan.org/Textiles.
Textiles include items such as clothing, towels, linens, bathmats, curtains, shoes, area rugs and carpet (no larger than 9’x12’). Unacceptable items include textiles that are wet, moldy, or have human biowaste, blood, toxic chemicals, or motor oil on them. No light-up shoes or light-up clothes. For a full list of acceptable and unacceptable items, visit cvsan.org/Textiles.
Customers will not receive a tax-deductible receipt. Questions? Call ACI at (510) 483-1400.
