Recycling Ambassador Guidelines
Thank you for your interest and passion to help our planet and the people who live on it. We are excited to offer flexible and scalable recycling and donation options that can assist you in achieving your organizational, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals.
General Guidelines
Ambassadors and Drop Off Locations will provide their own boxes to collect underwear. We encourage you to use your creativity and decorate a box. You can download a label for the box with The Bra Recyclers logo from our Company Ambassadors Google Drive Folder.
Use of The Bra Recyclers logo or other branded materials can only be used to promote recycling, donation, or related events. Approval will be needed for use of any other purpose. Email ambassador@brarecycling.com for approvals.
Promotional materials will be made available to all Ambassadors via a secure portal. Access will be granted upon approval of the Company Ambassadorship application. Modifications/changes to any promotional or marketing materials should be approved. For approval, send all changes to ambassador@brarecycling.com.
A copy of press releases should be sent to The Bra Recyclers for review and approval to ensure accurate information has been included.
The Bra Recyclers will not be responsible or liable for any thefts or damages before or during an event sponsored by the Recycling Ambassador or in collecting or storing items from the public.
Ambassadors will be responsible for covering the reasonable shipping cost of bras and underwear to The Bra Recyclers. New underwear can be shipped to 4904 S Power Rd, Ste 103-441, Gilbert, AZ 85212. If you have larger quantities (e.g., LTL or full truckload), please get in touch with us to arrange to have items shipped directly to our warehouse.
All items delivered to The Bra Recyclers will be considered the property of The Bra Recyclers once they have been received at our facility.
For underwear that will not be shipped to The Bra Recyclers but donated to local charities, you must agree only to donate bras that are gently used or new and only new women's and girls' panties and new men's and boy's underwear. There should not be any tears, heavy deodorant stains, or the smell of heavy perfumes.
We encourage you to use Give Back Box. You can ship up to 50 lbs. for $20. Fill out the recycling form and then select Give Back Box when selecting how to deliver your box. If a person or organization drops off a large volume of underwear, you have the right to refuse the bras and ask them to contact The Bra Recyclers to arrange for shipping.
*Please note underwear does not need to be sorted when sent to The Bra Recyclers. Please fill out the online recycling form so we can make sure your items are associated with your account and count toward your Sustainability Scorecard if you choose that option. If you don’t fill out the online recycling form, please make sure you include identification so we know the box came from you.
Drop Off Locations
Drop-off locations agree to have their business name, address, phone, website, and hours of operation listed on The Bra Recyclers website. If there are any changes to this information, you will contact The Bra Recyclers immediately by emailing ambassador@brarecycling.com.
All Drop Off Locations must be open to the public and maintain hours of operation where the public can drop off recycled items.
The Bra Recyclers will not be responsible or liable for any damages before or during an event sponsored by The Bra Recyclers Partner. If you need event insurance, you will be responsible for obtaining the necessary insurance.
Bra Recyclers Ambassadors, which are businesses or organizations, will agree to allow The Bra Recyclers the right to use, reproduce, copy, and rebroadcast information about the Bra Recyclers Partner’s business or organization to promote donation, recycling, or related events.
