New Sketchy Clothing Donation Bin On Westminster

Nora Whelan -

Remember those for-profit clothing donation bins we told you about a few weeks ago? Well, a new one seems to have popped up on Westminster near Foster. Judging by the sticker remnant left on its side, it belongs to Viltex USA, “a for profit company that works hand in hand with local non profit organizations and charities for the purposes of providing help and assistance to those in need.” Hm.

If you’ve got clothing to get rid of, neighbors have recommended posting on the Flatbush Family Network, recycling textiles at the Cortelyou Greenmarket, or dropping off at:

  • Housing Works: 266 5th Ave at Garfield Pl. in Park Slope, 718-636-2271
  • Goodwill: 1102 Fulton St between Franklin and Classon Aves in Bed Stuy, 718-789-0856
  • Bins at the former C-Town (now Ideal Supermarket): 710 Coney Island Ave. between Ave. C and Cortelyou Rd.
