Saffy Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Dont here co,s they never collect the dam things everyones given up on our rd. I agree ! For the first time ever, I loaded a Breast Charity bag with some lovely clothes .. Next/Fat Face/Top Shop ... and no bugger came to collect. That's the last time I do it .. in the bin they'll go from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoid Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I agree ! For the first time ever, I loaded a Breast Charity bag with some lovely clothes ..

That's the last time I do it .. in the bin they'll go from now on. couldn't you just take them to a recycling point? they generally have clothes collections i think i agree about the number of bags though. it's ridiculous... how many clothes do they think you have to give away?!!!

ant777 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 hi i have just started delivering these bags no work about and got kids to feed and the way it works is i deliver the bags then collect the bags in my own van then the recycling company which is a non profit making company pays me so much per kilo which is very little i have to pay for my own diesel and pay for the bags its really hard to make a living from it as some other charities ship in two or three hundred people at a time usually imigrants and pay them as little as 10 pound per thousand delivered and totally flood huge areas with bags nspcc are worst for this so please keep filling your bags and leaving them out so people like me can at least make a wage otherwise these greedy charities and bag theives will take what little there is and i will be back to square one by the way i deliver the Rainbow Trust bags which the profit they make goes solely to UK childrens charities and not abroad thanks for reading. P.S. All genuine charity bag collectors have ID badges if not they are probably stealing them to sell on ebay so ask to see them and if they havent REPORT them to the police as this is a criminal offence.
