The Bra Recyclers is so excited to partner with the Give Back Box.
The Give Back Box aims to provide an effortless and convenient method of recycling your preloved clothing.
This method is only available for shipping within the US.
We recommend using the Give Back Box if you are shipping more than ten items or the shipping cost is more than $20.
Your shipping label will be sent to the email used to sign-up for the Give Back Box. Check your spam or junk mail if you do not see it in your inbox. The email will come from the Give Back Box, not The Bra Recyclers.
The label you will receive will show 10 lbs, but you can ship up to 50 lbs. When you fill out the form below, please select Ship via Give Back Box when asked How Are You Delivering Items?
If you want a tax deduction form for your items, please email Give Back Box at info@givebackbox.com
Please include the inventory barcode in your box. If you do not, we cannot send you an email confirmation when we receive your items. You can also print out the recycling form and add it to the box.
*Note: If you have issues receiving your label, please contact Monika at Give Back Box and they will assist you. The email is info@givebackbox.com

If your package is smaller and you don’t require a Give Back Box, you can ship directly to The Bra Recyclers with your preferred mailing service, e.g., UPS or USPS.
Packages sent from other carriers are also accepted at this location.

If you have a large number of bras and new underwear (100+ items), please contact us to make appropriate shipping arrangements. Unfortunately, our drop-off locations can not manage larger packages. Please send an email to: contactus@brarecycling.com or call 480-988-2283.

Important Information
Email confirmations are not guaranteed when you use one of our drop-off locations.
Some drop-off locations may donate items directly to local charities. As a result, we will not receive your donation at our warehouse and cannot send a confirmation.
If you want a confirmation, we recommend printing off the inventory barcode you’ll receive after submitting the form below and including it in your box. You will also receive an email with the inventory barcode. If you don’t want to print it, you can also write it on paper and include it in your box.
You can send your items directly to our mailing address using your preferred shipping method if no confirmation is required.
*Please allow up to 2 weeks to receive your confirmation email. Check your spam or junk mail folders if you don't receive it.
Mail your items directly using the shipping information above, OR fill out the recycling form below to receive a confirmation email.
Besides the substantial social impacts on people escaping domestic violence and human trafficking, you are helping reduce your carbon footprint.
Underprivileged families, homeless individuals, and people burdened with medical bills from breast cancer will have a better future because of your recycled items.
